Guess I'm thinking about something else. I've seen it called without it being a push off, it's rare, but some players have "oh s***" moments when they see someone about to block their shot and throw up a hand/forearm to block it.

Just checked, nothing in the Case Book.

What I'm talking about is when a dribbler blocks a defender from attacking the ball with their offhand. It is generally very subtle and contact is far from severe and so it's not seen as an advantage. That's why I was wondering if there was any case plays because the rule says nothing about severity or advantage. It simply says it's not allowed. I guess it has happened where a dribbler actually forcefully uses the arm to knock away an attempt to attack the ball but I've never seen it. I'd guess the oh crap moment you note above is prob more prevelant and more likely to be called.

Hey now, don't go stealing lines from that that intense fan in the third row with the baseball cap pulled down low on his eyes. (You know, the one who screams for 3 seconds when the offense takes and misses multiple quick shots.) :p

I know. It's frustrating as a parent. Y'all always miss that three second call no matter how much we try to help ya out on it.

The blue may be unnecessary, but as I was about to hit "post," I realized someone would think I was serious and derail this . . . I usually get to sit in the stands and laugh about the screaming on this at least once a game . . .
