People in this thread actually want to see it though.
I posted this gif 2 years ago and people seemed to enjoy this in the game.
I think this is fine. Player coming down the lane out of control & the defense guesses their direction correctly.
Only block/charge I'd want looked at is when a player is already in their gather towards the rim & the defender steps in, making no effort playing the ball.

Sliding in last second has always been a trash call. You shoudnt be able to get that call as a defender once the offensive layer jumps, or hell even has that last gather.

Yea this should be a flagrant foul. Sliding in last second or when a player is already airborne, I’m not a fan of
But if you are set, and a player is driving tryna dunk it on you, or you know the direction they’re gonna take, nah I can’t agree with banning the charge.

No one said let the player score. If you can get there in time, you can jump and contest the shot. We care about rim protection, right? Kevin love is 6’10”. Jump in the air hands up. Grant williams does it. Horford does it.
If you cared about your life, you wouldn’t contest.

You aren’t able to do this now. If called correctly…it’s called a blocking foul .

The "sacrifice" is basically stuntman work where you throw yourself on the ground as soon as you feel contact

Who are the top 5 players who lead the league in charges? Probably not players that can block a dunk.

It's also known as a blocking foul, reaching foul, clear path foul, the list goes on if we're being clever with semantics'Getting into people's way' also known as playing defense

Ok but you're talking about beating someone to the spot right? That's called defense. If you're late, it's called a foul

Problem is most of the charges are the last second slide more than truly being set.

If you get there first you get there first. Doesn't really matter if it's the last second

Some of y’all wanna ban charges all together and make it even harder to play any defense at all?

It's actually pretty impressive players have avoided career ending or life altering injuries due to badly timed charges.

Supposedly, but it still happens way too often thats its a charge. If the off player looks like hes about to start his upward motion, the defender shoudnt be able to slide in anymore.

No one thinks this. The running and taking a hit to the chest on a flying defender can be done without. Giannis truck sticking the man guarding him is still a foul

As soon as Ja got downhill...AD stepped into the paint. Ja had several options here.
- A dumpoff to Tillman
- A euro (this is literally the ideal time to use it)
- A floater
