If he shoves me away from the basket posting or under it rebounding it is a huge advantage. Otherwise, it hurts more than helps. My foot goes right next to his and he is beat. Frankly, I don't see how a leg holds me. If I'm 6'5 and u r 6'1 I assure u that you could not guard me on the block.

And as to your "thug ball" comment I will say that there are well understood pickup rules for players who can actually play. I haven't played in years but, when I did I would never call foul on opponent. They were on their honor. If I fouled I would call it...no matter what. If someone plays like BS then u have to deal with it. Usually only once.

And I get if a leg is pushing you. But holding...can't see that worth complaining about. Shocking for me to see u say it's a huge advantage. It just isn't.
