4-23: Guarding an opponent with the ball or a stationary opponent without the ball: a. No time or distance is required to obtain an initial legal position.

2009-10 Point of Emphasis, Block/Charge: Points to remember when a defender is guarding a player with the ball: 1) Time and distance are of no consequence. If the defender gets to the spot first and is in a legal guarding position, the onus is on the person with the ball.
