I am surprised you see this as apples and oranges. Having left the floor, a defender is not entitled to air space or ground space other than that in her vertical plane. If I ball fake with the intent of going left, the defender cannot prevent my going left by leaping into my potential path.

I have always taught that if you jump laterally to a defensive position, you have to land to be in position. I think this holds true in all cases.
