definition of verticality
In the definition of verticality (Rule 4), there is no mention of verticality with respect to the offensive player. That is, the rule clearly marks the vertical territory owned by the defensive player, but does not make any comment about vertical territory owned by the offensive player.
Am I missing something? Is there some place in the rule book that states that the principle of verticality is applied also to the offensive player????
Again - my gut instinct is that a blocking foul should be called - I would like to find a rule interpretation that supports this. So far, we have not found one ...
Help!
