Camron, human beings aren't billiard balls. If the defender was drifting to his left, and the shooter drifting to his right (not really disputed here), the defender would have fallen in roughly the same direction as the shooter due to his own momentum.
Seriously, when's the last time you saw two roughly equally sized opponents hit each other and react like an eight-ball off the queue?
