I disagree with you on this on Bob. I can imagine several forms of legal contact that cause a disadvantage....
  • Contact on the hand in an attempt to play the ball.
  • Two players coming from equally advantageous positions in an attempt to get to a loose ball and one of them is bigger than the other and the collission at the ball knocks the smaller on down.
  • A player sets a legal screen, the defender runs into it. The contact is incidental but legally puts the defender at a disadvantage.
