Again, if a defensive player is moving towards an offensive player, the burden is on the defense...even if the offensive player jumps towards the defender. This is no different than say a dribbler moving towards a defender who is moving forward toward him. This doesn't give the offensive player carte blanche to do whatever because you can still go offensive if it's clear the defender jumps clear to the side offensive player or he does something overt (leads with an elbow, foot, or anything else non basketball related).
