Message: [QUOTE="JoePgh, post: 4261964, member: 1131"] Also, if you leave your feet to block a shot, you are vulnerable to a pump fake and then a foul or an and-one when you come down on the shooter when she is actually shooting. In telephone pole mode, you will still get blocks or deflections against smaller players when they don't shoot high enough to get the ball over your fingertips, and you will always make the opponent hit a very difficult shot: high enough to clear your fingertips but still accurate enough to hit the basket -- and to do that without getting a clear view of the rim.
