I already see a problem with the potential rule change. This sentence from the press release bothers me:

"In order to take a charge, the alteration will require a defending player to be in legal guarding position before the airborne player leaves the floor to pass or shoot. Additionally, the defending player is not allowed to move in any direction before contact occurs (except vertically to block a shot)."

Just what does the sentence in red mean? Does it mean that a defender who has established a LGP prohibited from moving to maintain his position?
