It is? Well I can tell you I used to raise my arms to give ultimately at PC foul signal. I used wave off the basket and it was often assumed by people watching that I was giving a "block" call at first. And it does ot matter what we "think" he was going to do, he did not ultimately signal anything and tha is all that matters despite what you say. Not every official runs out and gives a PC signal. Many different ways officials do things or the style they use.

I agree with Camron. The signal was received, which means it was sent.

Isn't a block signal include putting your hands on your hips at some point? I do not see any block signal in any book that shows your hands raised. Not sure it is that complicated as you seem to be making it, where you agree with Camron or not.
