2) An even better way to look at the play is forget about the block period. If the contact would be a foul if B1 was not trying to block the shot and only trying to defend the shooter, then the contact is a foul even if B1 does block the shot.

1) Thanks I guess.
2) Actually whether there is a block or not is not how I judge a foul. Players going to the basket are not going to get bailed out by me just because there was some contact. I feel the same way even if a block is not present. I am not calling a foul on a shooter that tries to do something they are not likely to complete if I have a serious choice between a foul or calling nothing. For example, a shooter going to the basket jumping between multiple defenders is not going to get a foul just because there is contact. The defenders are getting the benefit of the doubt on 50/50 plays.
3) I am wondering if you are going to finally beat an SEC team.
Peace
