How can you be 100% sure that the slap actually did make the ball spin out- i.e. it wasn't gonna spin out anyway? And what does "evening out" have to do with anything? It's never, ever our job to even anything out. We just call what happens, and use the applicable rule(s) to do so. It's not a matter of having to live with anything; it's a matter of making the correct call- which happens to be a "no call" on a legitimate block attempt.
