It's pretty evident that this --
Lane Space Player Fouls Free Thrower-- will be called a personal foul.
But, do they now mean that this --
Crosses FT Line, Contact Seems Incidental-- should be a personal foul?
Like when the defender reaches across the line and merely makes contact with the player with the ball on a throw-in,
mere contact is an intentional foul. Do they really mean for this "protecting the free thrower" to go so far as to compel us to call a personal foul for what is
mere incidental contact with the free throw shooter?
Any of you IAABO folks who got this earlier and have had opportunities for your interpreters to explain it to you, is that what they're saying the NFHS means?
