Play:
A1, with a backcourt throwin, passes ball to A2. The ball sails over A2's head. A2, in trying to get to the ball stumbles, falls to the floor, and rolls into B2's legs....taking them out from under B2 and B2 falls as a result. The ball when to the area of A4 and B4 and was 30' from B2, who was making no attempt to go with the ball.....he was staying with A2. No foul.

Camron I agree - I have been addressing the OP here in regards to the player delivering a crosscheck -- i dont see where inadvertent or not comes into the contact here. In my mind crosscheck is a bit of a rough contact and should be dealt with. IMO
