By the letter of the rule, this would be a blocking foul...there was plenty of displacement through body contact from a position that was no where near LGP Without it, LeBron wouldn't have been able to block the shot (or at least not nearly as easily).
However, in practice, when a player gets that much ball up top, we often ignore a lot of body contact that comes with it.
Not sure why we don't protect shooters who get their shot blocked, but we don't.
