OK, maybe I'm not seeing this properly. Why is this not a travel? Does B keep his hand on the ball throughout the block and therefore it should have been a held ball? (4-25-2)

Otherwise 4-43-3-b says this is a travel, if A doesn't release the ball, (in which case it's nothing).
If A1 was prevented in releasing the ball (which is hiow I interpret the word "block"), then it's a held ball.

If it was just a mere touching of the ball and A1 chose not to release teh ball, then it's a travel.
