Thanks! That is some great info!!!
Here it is without the rules indicators for an easier read:

Charge, Blocking, Legal Guarding Position (LGP) [4-7] [4-23] [10-6]:
Legal Guarding Position (LGP) is the legal position a defender may assume to guard a player. To obtain, a defender must have both feet on the court and be facing an opponent. This position is maintained even when the defender moves backward, sideways, or rises vertically. LGP is lost when the offensive player gets both head and shoulders in advance of the defender. There is no LGP for a player that contacts with an extended arm, shoulder, hip, leg, or if the defender is moving forward toward offensive player.
