I disagree completely, that some contact isn't a foul in this situation.
How can encircling a player that PREVENTS NORMAL MOVEMENT not be a foul?
The rules also say that the trailing player, i.e. the player behind, is responsible for contact when they are in a disadvantaged position.
Is it technically possible that it can be done without contact? Sure, but it is a foul if there is contact before the tie up, IMO.
Also I find that WAY too much contact is allowed while attempting to get a held ball, which gets rewarded with no foul. Grabbing, slapping and diving on another player is a foul, and it does not get called nearly enough.
