Again this is my take on your comments, but that is your right to feel that way. I just do not think what you say is totally true.
And I respect your right to have your take also. Some of it I personally agree with and some of it I don't.

With regards to the red-highlighted statement above, I basically agree with that also. But in my opinion NBA officials do not call this type of play consistently. I see it called...and then I see it no-called.....and I see one official calling it and another official letting rape go. It's the inconsistency in calling contact in the NBA that I personally just can't figure out. And I ain't the only one. I think that D1 officials are more consistent within their conferences in calling contact. That said, there is a disparity from conference to conference also, and it's been that way forever.

Jmo also, Jeff.
