He particularly wanted to know about the offensive player's (seemingly) gaining some extra height off the defender's shoulder.

The call on the floor seems to have been a block, since they're lining up for FTs. Your call?
It looks to me like the defender had LGP prior to the offensive player going airborne. It didn't appear to be a flop and contact was on the shoulder. The offensive player did not get his head or shoulders around the defender. I'm going with PC. Not only that, but you might have a case for a T on number 3 in white for taunting. Would any of you call the T in this case?
