Block or Charge?

Did the defender give him room to come down or did he undercut the rebounder? I couldn't tell from your description.

Would that matter if all the defender was doing is standing still the entire time? Everyone is allowed their place on the floor.

That depends. Was he standing still in LPG or was he standing still after he undercut him? That would make a huge difference.

The defender established his position AFTER the rebounder went into the air to grab the ball.

I agree with you there, but you said "give him a place to land." You never have to give someone a place to land if you have established LGP. Either way this is one of those "you would have to see it" types of plays. We can all talk about what we would call, but seeing it is where we make out money.

As Rut said well, you'd have to see it to make the final judgement, but based on what you've said I'm going with Mark's explanation and the call the charge.

I agree with that position as well.

I don't think I'd wager a verdict on this one without seeing it first.
