If A1 and a B player had mutual grasp on the ball and then B1 comes and lands on top of "them", it could be a held ball then a dead ball technical on B1. If B1 jumps onto "him", A1, who has the ball himself, then it's a foul.

Way too many people write "they" or "them" when a singular pronoun should be used. One of the worst offenders is a regular poster on this forum. |

If the ball is on the "same side" as B1, then I'd generally go with the held ball and call any contact incidental. |

(political correctness prompts too many to avoid the generic singular "he" when it can be used in a non-gender oriented sense...I'm getting tired of typing s/he as a middle ground)

He/she/they should call a jump here.
Unless the contact is clearly intent on landing on/into the player as an excuse to crash and no a play on the ball. You've got a player on the floor who doesn't have any sort of legal position, another player making a play on the ball. Unless you can tell that the contact is clearly disadvantaging a player (laying on the ground unable to do anything with no expectation of time and space.) Then contact is incidental and we jump it up. Unless they feel like him was creating excessive contact leading to rough play by them.

Grammar Incorrectness ???
Save yourself some keystrokes, just type "e".

Exactly, pretty much all positions are legal except when such position is used to impede an opponent.

Yes poor word choice on my part. I meant there was no spot to displace him off of or movement to impede. Contact made by landing "on top" isn't going to move him further into the floor, certaingly isn't going to stand him up. Ball has no where to be except either between the bodies which means the ball is getting contact/tied up first or the ball is off the side but the defensive contact is not putting the offense at any immediate disadvantage. Unless players are carshing in from the side and dog piling just to create contact, then calling fouls on players diving on loose balls probably isn't going to get you appreciated by fans, coaches, players or supervisors/partners IMO.

Huh?

If this response is in reference with that situation it's the wrong aim; not just a poor word choice, a poor ethical choice. Assessment of reason for officiating suggested. If that's what was meant.

If you want an advantage to consider, by jumping on the other player the jumper gained access to the ball they would not have otherwise. The advantage/disadvantage is not always the effect is has on the fouled player but the benefit gained by the fouling player.
