This is incorrect. The defender can stay with the offensive player and mainting his guarding position. The count will continue. You can even have a 5 second violation on a drive to the hoop. The only way the count ends is if the offensive players gets head and shoulders PAST the defender or if the defender loses his legal guarding position or if he backs up more than 6 feet.

More importantly, once LGP is gained, what can he possibly do to lose it?

And a defender can lose his LGP by a quick move and the defender falls, offense gets his head and shoulders past the defender, defender and offensive player move to the same position and collide at the same time, I would put this contact on the defense all the time.

And where does it say a defender who has fallen has lost his LGP?

With the defender on the floor, I could not rationalize continuing the count.

I disagree here. I do think lying prone on the ground is NOT playing defense. No count from me.

Yes I am. LGP ended when the defender fell, once he re-establishes himself I will restart.

You can argue that if the defender falls to the floor he/she is no longer continuously guarding the ball-handler.
