Both of these points are irrelevant. You don't have to have your feet set to take a charge. And in the NBA, the primary defender (Shaq's man) can be on or inside the arc and be fouled. It's the secondary defender (the help defender) that must be outside the arc.
I know your feet don't *have* to be set, but they were anyway...and it was the secondary defender on this play.
