Are you in favor of the refs rewarding the offensive player every time he initiates contact? (alien.top)

with a foul call? I understand using your hips or shoulder to create separation is part of the game and as a defender if your not strong enough to take the contact then oh well. But also as defender you are entitled to your position. Where do you guys stand on this ?

It is an obvious no the way you have phrased it. Under this interpretation, what is stopping a player from running full speed at the defender and running them over. Games would be over in 10 minutes with everyone fouling out. The most valuable skill in basketball would become leaping out of the way.
