Now, I'm calling a foul, but based on what has been posted, many should call a travel if they really believe what they have said. Everything is there: LGP, spot on the floor, no time or distance required for a player with the ball. |
If he's moving and cuts off A1's path, it's a foul whether he's on the floor or not. If, however, there was time for his momentum to cease, then A1 has time to go around him. If he's moving, LGP is required but was never attained.
BTW, if A1 is dribbling, I won't be calling a travel. Most likely, it'll be a no-call (assuming B1 had stopped sliding by the time contact was made.)
