I don't think he's saying an official that calls a block here is a bad officials....it was pretty close.
What I think he's saying is that an official that calls a block becasue it's the easy call (despite knowing it was a charge) is a bad official.
There are those that say they want the kids to decide the game and base a no-call or block on that premise. In doing so, that official has actually decided the game by allowing a shot that should have been waived off due to the charge....giving the shooting team a win.
