How many pre-game's do we talk about not penalizing a defender that maintains "verticality"? How many times do we discuss this scenario in the sense people come to these types of games to see the bigs block shots, dunk, etc.?

This video clearly illustrates B1 didn't maintain verticality. His momentum ensured his body moved into and through A1 while attempting a shot. But, it also illustrates the "let the bigs block shots, that's why people are here" vernacular.

I'd be interested to know how many other shots white blocked that night previous to this play. Were they similar? If so, and no foul was called, I'd probably lay off this one too. I might lay off it even if it was the first blocked shot of the game.

Whatever the case, I hope the crew was consistent.
