While I thought it shouldn't have been a T-foul becuase the opposing team obviously pushed us into thier ball. We were given one anyway. We won the match regaurdless so I didn't press the issue.
Would incidents like this now be accessed as a foul by this rule change?

I don't think it was a possession at all. The G12 update doesn't really address the key issue of how to call possessions. I saw the ball jump up on your bumper a bit. I don't believe it should have counted as an assist if that was your alliance's ball, so it should not count against you as the defender in this case.
Bottom line, the G12 update is a net negative to the game.
