Chuck,

The original post & you stated "there is contact". Where in the book does it say that the contact must be violent or defender must be displaced for a PC to be called?

Player Control foul is to reward the defense for moving their feet, not for taking impact. Does not matter how slight or violent the contact is, by rule if contact is initiated by offense w/ball & defense in legal guarding position, then PC is the call. If the defender obtains legal guarding position & offense w/ball makes contact, there is no "incidental contact".

The situation outlined shows a great DEFENSIVE play not a great offensive move.
