You should also consider, where the contact was made, and if an advatage was gained, and by whom?



Exactly. I happened to be in front of the bench last night and was questioned about a b/c call my partner had. It was a good call in that the dribbler initiated the contact, but it looked ugly because the defender was falling backwards anyway. The coach started in on me, I said "who initiated that contact, coach", he kept trying to bring some other factors in but about the third time I asked him that question he sat down.
