I think we need more "patient whistles" on attempts to block a shot. I see too many calls at all levels where the block is clean and the incidental contact with the body is called. I think this is an attempt to cover a blown call that was blown because of the anticipation of a foul. Not that I think blocking shots is productive because for every clean block there must be at least 5 legitimate fouls. This causes the anticipation of a foul as mentioned above.
