Whether or not you think the defender had LGP is moot, as the dribbler has the right to that spot too. The defender did NOT get their first.
LGP does matter. He was in a LGP and did get to the spot prior to the offense. I think the first play could have been a play on, but in my opinion if you have a call, I would have a PC. One thing I don't see is the offensive player getting past the shoulders of the defense.
