this is definitely an offensive foul. The norm or status quo you are talking about is when the defender jumps directly at the shooter and the offensive player can then draw a foul from such, but hamilton is jumping to the side of Pierce, more like a fly by, and pierce steps over into him overtly which we are told to deem this as well as plays such as overt leg kicks during jump shots and wipe outs on plays to the basket as offensive fouls.
