foul baiting IS A FOUL
it is an aggressive act. if you get a defender in the air he cannot change his body's landing spot and in effect baiting is you usurping HIS SPACE
that's an offensive foul. batter definition is who is leaning more than the other

May I ask where the term "grifter" came from? I've been following the NBA for a long time and I swear I never heard this saying, but over the last month or so I have been seeing it a ton. Is this new?

Well its kind of an old school term from way back when(like the 30's-60's) for people who get things in a dishonest way. I'm guessing someone just threw it out there and now its getting used for players who are good at drawing whistles.
