LGP is irrelevant if it is the ball carrier who initiates the contact via push-off, straight-arm, or in this case, lowering his shoulder and ramming into the defender.
You must remember that the defender has a right to run ANYWHERE on the court (including in front of a running dribbler), so long as he does not illegally contact an opposing player in the process. Explanation to coach: "Coach, he pushed off/gave him a shoulder-butt/straight-armed. Too bad, too - I was ready to call a block."
