If one player gains an illegal advantage by shoving his opponent out of his way, he's committed a foul.
Sometimes a little knowledge can be dangerous.  |
I agree with you re: the loose ball situation, but in this case the official called a PC foul. I guess I viewed this the same way as a ball handler running into a player who was standing with their back to the ball handler, do you have a PC foul on that also?
