My primary objection is passing on heavier contact just because the shot is made. If the contact hinders the normal offensive movements, the offensive player is at a disadvantage. Just because a stronger player can adjust to heavier contact and still make the shot, he is still hindered and is entitled to the fouls shots regardless of the outcome of the shot.

Gary,
You have hit on a valid argument. I am sure that Shaq would agree that a strong player should not be penalized for being strong. I believe we must be fair to all players equally. Yet we still must adjudge the impact, intent and effect of contact.
