What am i adding?
LGP requires the defender to be in the path of the opponent with 2 feet on the floor and facing the opponent. That's it. Right???
The path the opponent takes is right over the block (reference point only). So, that is the only path that matters.
The defender is facing the opponent the entire time...check.
The defender is in a possible path, but is not in "the" actual path of the opponent until the defender gets her body over the block. (an arm, foot, or leg in the path is not in the path).
She has 2 feet on the floor prior to getting to the block but not being in "the" path of the opponent yet, that is not sufficient. Both feet must be on the floor while being in the path. When she is over the block and in "the" path, contact occurs before she can establish position by getting the 2nd foot down.
Again, what am I adding?
