#1. You might argue for a no-call if you felt the defender embellished (I don't) but there is nothing whatsoever in that play that makes it block if the rules are properly applied. That is a charge or nothing.
#2. The only thing I think he could be complaining about is the travel. I could be an all-star if I was allowed to travel like that. it was pretty egregiious. The shooter had stopped his dribble, jumped off of his right foot, landed on his right foot, followed by his left foot, then lifted the right foot and stepped with it again before shooting. Even if you judge that the right-left came down together, he still doesn't get to pivot again as he did. I wouldn't think that would be worth getting a T over, however. Was there something else he might have been complaining about?
