Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 2724383, member: 1414"] I’m with him in part. I’ve long hated the extra step allowed that magically isn’t a travel, and I hate the continuation play. If you want to give the refs discretion to not call a minor floor foul because the shooter isn’t impeded, like happens in soccer, fine. But either the play ends with the foul before a shot or there is no foul. I’d also make the rule very clear that no defender can be called for a foul on contact initiated by the offense. They aren’t offensive fouls either, but they need to stop letting the offensive players cause fouls on themselves by contacting a defender. Of course, scoring would drop, the NBA wouldn’t want that.
