You know what I'm talking about; the defender isn't really "giving ground" the larger offensive player is taking it, and just backing him down. Most defenders are taught to wall up and try and hold their ground, but if the offensive player is larger they can't and end up getting backed down just because they are smaller. So they get displaced 6 inches at a time. I think most would agree that is not called a PC at most levels. Maybe it should be? In this play, the defender establishes position and refuses to move backward, and he sells it a bit. But I'm ok with that.
