Yeah I know, sorry. But I felt obligated to push this thread to at least 3 pages, and here we are.

Let's just declare success & leave it at that, OK?

Yeah, but Juulie is shooting for 10 pages. Maybe I should start spouting some bafflegab.

Some from you, a little from Nevada and a sprinkling from each of the lawyers will get us to 20 pages, easy.

I wanted 10 pages on topic. I guess my friend was not as close to base as he thought, and for once I was right! Now THAT's a weird feeling!

From Dictionary.com:

"bafflegab"- baf-fle-gab
n. Slang
- gobbledygook

If you aren't sure of that one:
"gobbledygook"- gob-ble-dy-gook
1) unclear, wordy jargon
2) incomprehensible or pompous jargon specialists

You now know.

Juulie:

To answer your original question as well as lengthen this thread: Facing an opponent means that the player who is supposed to do the facing is facing his opponent but his opponenet does not have to be facing him.

If you're looking a telephone pole with your body turned towards it, how can you tell if the telephone pole is facing you? (Yes, it's a silly question but it proves the point). You can't because it doesn't matter. Facing is done by one player.

If that were not the case, all a player would have to do is turn their back to the defender and then run over then (since they wouldn't have LGP). Of course, we know that is not the case.

Now if B is running along side A, I doubt they'll keep up with A for long if they're also facing A. Most people aren't that fast with a side step. If they're truly running side-by-side, they're probably not facing the dribbler.
