I agree that the hand check is very much about advantage/disadvantage, especially with more athletically gifted players. As long as the dribbler is getting where he's trying to go without the defender impeding his progress, why stop the game for having a hand on the dribbler? The some holds true for the forearm in the back on post players. As long as it's not affecting the action, why put up more fouls that will lead to more free throws?
