Troward,

The rules are written in such a way that no one gets an unfair advantage over the other players. However, being 6'3" with really long arms is a fair advantage, assuming he's the same age as the other kids. You can't penalize him for it. He's legally impeding the guard, without making contact. So no foul.

However, I think many of us will agree that we hate to see the winning team continue to press in a blowout.

Chuck
