Consider this scenario:

A defensive player is stationary hoping to take a charge, but the offensive player is athletic enough to slide to one side to avoid him. As the offensive player avoids him, the defensive player slides and is moving when contact is made.

Isn't that a blocking foul?
1. Is the offensive player airborne? blocking foul.
2. Is the defender sliding towards the non-airborne offensive player? If not, PC.
