( [/B][/QUOTE]Tony,I still think that what we have here may be a failure to communicate. I may be doing a poor job of trying to detail how I envision this play,but I think that,during a game,we would probably make the same call.That's jmo,too. Interesting discussion,though.Lot of good points made by different posters,too. |

Just to really stir this up, what if we consider screening principles?
The offense may not cut off the path of a moving defender without giving time/distance. I think it really boils down not to who jumped or who jumped first but the specifics of each case. Where was each player to start with? Which direction did they jump? Was the shooter's jump a "normal" offensive action. I had another post that didn't seem to make it....retrying... Quote:
That, I believe, is the crux of this situation. There also exists casebook plays wherein the defense draws a PC foul even though the defender was not in LGP. |

I doubt I get back into calling basketball but this is what I envisioned in the original play. A1 fakes a shot from the corner baseline. B1 bites on the fake and jumps out and towards A1. A1 takes a step in toward B1 and tries a jumpshot, B1 crashes into A1. Foul on B1 in my opinion. In your play, it's a tough call. Without answering your question , let me ask one (I honestly am swaying both ways with this one). A1 takes a shot. B1 is somewhat out of position to get the rebound and jumps from the side of the basket to the middle of the basket. While B1 is airborn, A1 moves to the spot where B1 is going to land to pull down the rebound. B1 lands on A1. Who fouled? Good question and good discussion.

JR:
"The principle of a "legal guarding position" doesn't really have anything to do with this play.It's more about who is *initiating* the illegal contact." Yes! RiPA: "However, if B1 jumps to a point, and A1 alters his path or initiates a new path to get to B1's landing point before B1 lands, I have a foul on A1. **To say anything different would make it legal to undercut anyone at any time.**" YES!!! That's the point! Defenders could never jump anywhere outside their "vertical plane" without the offense having license to undercut them. Can you imagine a game where the defense had to always stop before jumping to insure they were jumping inside their vertical plane? It's absurd. Quote:

So in the long run, we can learn this lesson from all of this discussion - you had better see the entire play! If you are turning your head late to pick it up, you have no idea who jumped where, so see the whole play...
