I don't usually ask for B/C videos (there are no shortage of requests each season), but this one had me perplexed. Defender was outside the RA, so that's not the issue.
Saving my thoughts for later. Want to see how the discussion goes once the video is up.

That left elbow being extended outside his vertical space is the contact that I believe is the root of why the L calls this a block.

The C is absolutely great on this play. He puts his eyes on the screen and then switches his coverage to the ball-handler. Then he comes up a with a fist since the play is in his primary, but holds since it is a secondary defender play.
