Message: [QUOTE="businesslawyer, post: 3432914, member: 55"] That isn't the case. If a defender is in the air and not having jumped vertically, and the shooter jumps in to him, that is a foul. The shooter has the right to any airspace except for that where the defender is standing, or straight above that. That having been said, this is a non-discussion. The photo shows the ball still in Cumberland's hand, and his feet on the floor, with the backboard lit up. There is no continuation with the clock running out as there is on an "and one," where if you're in the process of shooting and time runs out you get continuation. He hadn't shot when the buzzer sounded, and thus he couldn't be fouled in the act of shooting. [/QUOTE]
