So, I take it from YOUR perspective if a defender makes contact on an airborne shooter while the airborne shooter is in the air, in an attempt to box out the shooter prior to the airborne shooter returning to the floor and the box out doesn't affect the shoot. You are going to pass because it doesn't affect the shot?

Rookie, I am referring to the OP of the TAP on the LEG, period. You're talking apples and oranges.
Let me ask you something. A1 attempts a 3-pointer, B1 comes in blocks the shot but his momentum carries him and his arm into A1 before A1 returns to the floor and knocks A1 to the floor, what do you have? Furthermore, when the coach asks you, did the player block the shot first, which the answer is yes, and continues to state if it didn't affect his shot why are we shooting 3, what do you answer? This is the exact same play that happened to me in a region tourney game last night. So it's the same concept as your play, and as you can see, I had foul. BTW, me not being quick on my feet with a response it took me the 2nd of 3 free throws to answer his question.
