OK, no NBA guys here, so forget A, but:

B) Is there EVER a case where verticality is applied to the
shooter?

I have never seen a player control foul called at ANY
level when the shooter lunges into an air-born defender
outside his "vertical plane." What's the deal? Does verticality apply to shooters?

but there was an execllent no-call (apologies to MTD) in the closing seconds of the NJ/Detroit game on a 3 point attempt where the shooter jumped into a vertical Net player(Kidd?). Even the announcers agreed it was a good no-call.
