Eli, please note the . Are you so defensive when you're on the floor too?

I didn't see the play you are referring to. I think several people are misunderstanding me. As I stated in my original posting, a foul should be called if the contact is violent whether the ball is blocked first or not. I am referring to plays where there contact is not severe and the ball is clearly blocked first. Maybe Andre felt the contact was too severe or maybe he just missed the call which can happen to anyone. I can assure you that Andre shares my thoughts on fouls after the ball is blocked as I have worked with him and been to his camps.
There was nothing severe about the contact. It was simply a foul. The ball was clearly out of Williams' hand, the ball was blcoked and there was contact between the Williams and Prince. It was the same play that's been described over and over again in this thread as a no-call.

If you and Andre have the same philosophy, it's not the same one that you've expressed over the past few days.
