If the defender is already beaten, then you're definitely going to let it go. But if the defender just leaves a hand on the ballhandler continuously as the offense tries to run a play, the POE seems to say that it should be a foul, even if the ballhandler might eventually go to the basket.
I don't think were really said anything different. I wasn't talking about "eventually"...but in progress...right now. If they're parking it there while the dribbler is moving around out top, I don't disagree with calling it.
