Are you sure? Looks like he stops with both feet on the ground and then braces for impact. The bracing looks kinda goofy but I'm not calling it a block for just that aspect of the call.

Absolutely...once I saw the view from the endline and above.

The defender's shoulder was still moving into the path all the way to the point of contact. If the defender's body was frozen at the time of the shooter elevating, there may have been no contact at all.

While the defender's feet may have been down, his body wasn't yet in the path...thus LGP was not yet obtained. Getting the feet into the path isn't adequate.

Well said, thanks for the reply.
