Seems to me to be a clear no call LGP, responsibility for contact aside etc.
The defense's movement (flop if you want) created the contact. It caused the shooter to be flipped partially over and to the floor....protect the shooter....call the block. If the shooter had stayed upright and on his feet, no call.
