In football (soccer) that would be a no. It is deemed a tackle from behind and a foul. A definet yellow and a pssible red card offence.
So they can get back to playing basketball.
It is the same as block out. Keeping the man you are closest to from getting down low for a rebound. Turn your back to him keep a hand on him for locating him and use your back and butt to block him away from the rim.
No
No.
When someone misses it, then another player "puts it back" while it is still in the air.
yes, it's call clipping or block in the back
its a back court violation
That player is the libero and cannot block or spike and plays at the back only.
In the NBA the player has 8 seconds to cross the back court. In college it's 10.
