Illegal. A2 didn't allow B1 time/distance to avoid contact.

Illegal screen. Although A2 could have avoided my call with only a small step further from B1.

B1 isn't moving very fast, and in fact changes direction before contact. A2 only has to give B1 one step here, and it seems she gets that step before colliding with A2. I've got a legal screen with no-call.

Why would you warn of a spoiler...after you've spoiled a story line? No, I haven't read the books, so I really appreciate your spoiler...

I have illegal. The screener stopped with her left foot right next to the defender, no way did she give her enough distance.

apg, think of it this way, you know he is going to die, just not when so now the suspense/anticipation will have you on the edge of your seat every scene he is in, wondering if this will be the time he bites the dust. btw, you should really read the books, as is the case most of the time, the books are way better than than the show.

Or you know...you only took the SURPRISE out of it.

I'm not going to read the books till the TV series is finished because I want to be able to enjoy the TV aspect on its own merits and watch it like I would any other series...without having things spoiled.

And to keep this on topic, letter of the law, it's an illegal screen IMO...the screener did not give the proper time and distance to her opponent.

You don't think the screener gave the defender a step?

I'm fighting every sarcastic bone in my body not to address your little fanboy conversation.

I likely have nothing on this play or a foul on the defender. The angle is not good enough for me to say how much of a step was given. I would not guess on this play and likely since the offensive player took the brunt of the contact, I probably have nothing here.

Peace

Nope, I believe she got there "late"...but then again, like JRut mentioned, I don't really have a problem with passing on this play here. The defender is hardly affected by the contact.

And I'm more baffled as to how someone could post a spoiler...than at the end of their post, mention don't read the previous sentence for fear of spoilers. Besides being a careless and dick move to do, the thought process makes no sense to me.

Are you waiting for the Twilight movies to finish before starting the books?

Looks like a step to me...

That or for hell to freeze over, whichever occurs last.

Illegal screen, but a no-call would not be horrible. It didn't really create any benefit for the offense and the defender moved around it without much effort.
