However, what is the difference between 1. C and 2. B ?

1C is a live ball contact foul (such as your example.)
2B is a dead ball contact foul. Dead ball contact is to be ignored unless it is either intentional or flagrant. (I added 2C above)

If you were in Canada, you would embrace the "Spirit of the Radio". This is best exemplified by the three man crew of Lee, Peart and Lifeson!

Generally true, but not precisely correct. You are overlooking one aspect.

Yep. So if a player intentionally fouls an airborne shooter after the ball has passed through the basket, what type of foul is correct using your classification list in this thread?

That would be a "stupid" foul.

According to the spot this morning on the Early Show, this was done on only the second attempt.

Now, my question - if the defender clips the landing gear, and it doesn't affect the shot, is it still a foul?
