Answer in Brief

Solution
- Charging is the most difficult decision to make during a basketball game. If a defensive player is not stationary, does not have both feet firmly planted on the floor, or does not establish position before the offensive player approaches, he will be penalised with a blocking penalty.
- When the collision is made, the referee has only a split second to assess which player arrived first on the spot.
- Furthermore, in the NBA and Euro leagues, the defensive player must be outside of a semi-circle four feet from the basket. Otherwise, he will be punished with a blocking foul.
