Mark T D'N:
Thank you for this excellent explanation. It hits exactly on my confusion, and makes the situation much more clear. I think you are saying that the best thing for the Offensive player to do, is to step forward into the contact so that the defender has committed a foul and can't gain the ball. This is how I have called this contact in the past, but I didn't realize that the "swimming" was the first illegal move. Extrapolating a little, if a dribbler is driving down the lane, and a defender puts an arm out horizontally, we call a block if the dribbler runs through the arm, but if the dribbler puts up his off hand and pushes the defender's arm out of the way, is it now PC? |

No matter who commits the foul using swim move (offense or defense), I use the illegal use of hands signal. When a player holds his/her arms parallel to the floor and impedes the movement of his/her opponent, that is holding, not blocking.

I would and do use the holding signal, I thought my statement implied that I would.
