Tonight, while watching a bit of the Celtics' game, I heard something more shocking than a whistle to call a travel in the NBA.
That's right, one of the announcers said, and I quote: "You don't have to have your feet set to draw an offensive foul." I'm still a bit stunned by this revelation. All this time, I've apparently been doing things wrong by just looking at the defender's feet!!

High school - defensive player B1 has obtained a legal guarding position and jumps straight up when he is charged into by A1. Would this not be a charge without the feet being set? Rule 4-19-6 (p. 30 in Simplified and Illustrated)

Conversation (well, maybe a loud conversation)
between me & a coach at a recent AAU game right after I made a PC call against his player: Coach: "Dan! He wasn't set! His feet were still moving!" Me: "Coach, you know he's allowed to move his feet." Coach: "Yeah, sure he can, but not side to side!" Me: So I guess the word *is* getting out, but the message recieved is not quite the message sent.
