Chuck is exactly correct. As soon as I saw the play at the end of last night's game, I replied to crew's post. The contact was not extreme or violent. According to the statements previously made by crew and eror39, they both would no-call the play last night. Or at least the say they would. I realize they're your buddies Drake but they said what they said. The evidence:

In my opinion once the defender blocks the shot, secondary defender or not, contact after the block should not be considered a foul unless extremely violent. The blocked shot play to me is where you really see a difference between officials.
Actually, I would not have a foul on this play even in a junior high game.
As I stated before if the contact after the block is violent or severe I would have a foul.
Let me first reiterate that I believe the defender is allowed to make contact after the block, thus the contact does not affect the shot.

i almost always consider the contact after the blocked shot incidental.
i would call this play the same on highschool and college level. you would not?
i am not eli but i will give my theory. if contact is made after the blocked shot and the contact is minimal(even if the shooter goes to floor), i would not call it.
