Picture this play: A1 jumps and has the ball in his right hand. He raises the ball to a height of 12 feet. He is holding it two feet in front of the basket and now throws it downward with great force. The ball is headed towards the basket and will likely go in when a nearby defender jumps and bats the ball away. What call do you make?

I have a feeling it's wrong, but I would call that a good block. Question: is the ball still in the players hand or is this some JaVale McGee throw-in dunk from 6 feet away? I would call it a block if in the defenders hand, a goaltend if contacted after the release.
