Yes, but the term "firm up" in the NBA venacular refers to the defense. "Shape up", to me, is so ambigious and a weird wording. Do you think they changed from "firm up" to "shape up" just so they wouldn't have the same wording as the NBA?
By the by, I understand what you are saying and thank you.
P.S. To me, it sucks that a player can't at least use a forearm to maintain position.
