Jeff, are you saying that when a defender jumps into a shooter and makes contact with the body, you don't have a foul unless the contact is flagrant?

Or do you mean when the defender jumps straight up, you don't have a foul on body contact?

If the defender is jumping into a shooter and makes body contact, the arm contact is relatively inconsequential. The shooter is likely to miss whether the shot is blocked or not.

However, if the defender is jumping straight up, the shooter is really responsible for the body contact.
