You must give a player a step, or before the player takes his final step to shoot. I will admit one thing about your statement bad zebra, this is one reason why I call a block on this type of play, for "safety" reasons.

A wise man once said, "It is better for a man to remain silent, and have people think he is a fool, than for that man to open his mouth and remove all doubt." Congratulations - you have removed any doubt.
C'mon, quit drinking that Kool-Aid that coaches and players are feeding you, Old School. You have just admitted you would base you calls or no-calls on what you, or other people feel is "safe", vs. actually using the rules. That's too bad.
If you are an official, it is officials like you that give the rest of us bad names. Hey, don't shoot the messenger.
