NAH ITS IN THE SAME VEIN AS NOT GIVING A SHOOTER SPACE TO LAND
EVEN THOUGH THE BALL IS LONG GONE.

NO CONTACT CAN BE MADE UNTIL THE SHOOTER
LANDS SAFELY.
You still haven't shown me where this is in the rulebook.





THE RULEBOOK SAYS YOUR ARM IS SUPPOSED TO VERTICAL
WHEN DEFENDING A SHOT
AND ANY CONTACT MADE WHEN YOUR ARM
IS EXTENDED IS A FOUL.

YOU CANT REACH IN A SHOOTERS PERSONAL
SPACE AND MAKE CONTACT
THATS WHY PPL DONT GO FOR BLOCKS
ON MOST JUMPSHOTS.
:devil:
:evil:

You can when it comes after the shot and only touches the hand. The rulebook says explicitly:

After the shooter releases the ball: Contact with the shooter’s hand (a “high five”) during the shooter’s followthru is legal, provided that the contact is incidental and not, for example, hostile or overly physical.

THE RULEBOOK ALSO SAYS
YOUR HAND CANT GO UNDERNEATH THE BALL
WHEN YOU DRIBBLE
YET NO ONE DRIBBLES LIKE BOB COUSY

STOP QUOTING shyt THAT CLEARLY DOESNT APPLY TO TODAYS GAME.

The written rule is intentionally ambiguous to allow refs to do what they want. Throughout a game, there will be several plays that are ruled shooting fouls and several that are ruled incidental high fives and there will be no discernable difference between them.
