The problem with saying "on the floor" is that it helps spread the belief that a player can't be in the act of shooting if they're on the floor (and as a side note, it's been my experience that those that do say "on the floor" are incorrectly not awarding free throws when they should be). The NBA signal for basket interference does no such thing.

Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is.
