Fun With Arm Bars ...

In this video, the defender actually placed three separate and different extended arm bars on the ball handler, even switching arms.

In a real game, I could (maybe) let the first arm bar go, but the second, and especially the third, can't be ignored, and there wasn't much time for a, "Hands off".

There's a reason a had a 2nd paragraph in my response. You chose to edit it out for the purposes of your response.

Wasn't sure what a "stayed hand", or a "staid hand", was.

If it was an arm bar, we agree.
