My take on it: If it is the defenders job to legally stop he offensive player from scoring, how in the world does a defender stop the offensive player when his back is turned to him going up to the rim, unless he has eyes in the back of his head.
Man up and take a real charge.

Seriously?! He thought a shot was up and turned around to watch for the rebound and box out. This is a real charge, so call it that way. There is no requirement that a player face his opponent while standing still.
It's the offensive player's responsibility to know where the defenders are and not run them over. This is obviously the offensive player's responsibility.
And you have the benefit of the rule to back you up on it.
