Agree. It's almost a duplicate of the other play. The defender just gets both feet down before the shooter becomes airborne.

Good charge call.

The fact that B1 is starting to fall backward doesn't matter, correct? He is allowed to establish position and "turn" to protect himself??? Just a question....don't have rule book handy...

You're right. The defender can protect himself. I thought that the defender wasn't falling backward though; I thought he got knocked backward. There was a lot of contact.

That was my impression as well - the contact definitely caused the defender to go down.

Falling back was minimal, made the point that he fell back ever so slightly before contact...wanted to mention it before anyone used that as a case for a block.

JR, I noticed your reference to the shooter going airborne. Would this have an impact on the call? I thought that if the defender had LGP, then the responsibility falls on the offensive player, airborne or not. Could you elaborate?

I think he's making a reference that B1(defense) needed to establish LGP before shooter goes airborne...if he's airborne before B1 establishes it's a block....
