I'm with you brother! Great example. This seems crystal clear to me. I was originally shocked when we had others say it would be a block!!!
Forget even a player with the ball! Would we let ANY player jump in the air and then land on the back of the slower moving player in front of them? I would hope not.
I do understand their point of view better now, but I know both sides are reading it differently.
