Couple more things that have to go....
1. Forcing the defender to keep his arms straight up when defending the basket. As long has you don't hack them on the arm, head, shoulder, or something. I agree with having to jump straight up though. Shouldn't be able to jump into the the person with the ball
2.Calling a foul when someone pump fakes, then jumps into the defender. That should be a foul on the offense. If the defender jumps on to you after a pump fake, then ya, that's a foul, or even if you jump in a reasonable shooting motion, then ya, that's a foul too. But if the trajectory of the defender is coming down to a spot in front of the offensive player, but not into the player, that should be a foul if the offensive player jumps into him.
Basically anything that is a bailout call needs to go.
