It also needs to be noted that the defender had his arms out-stretched, not vertical. Some of that contact occurs with the left arm.

That's what I saw the first few times I watched it - it looked like the main contact may have been on the outstretched arm...but it's hard to tell from the angle of the video.

Seems fairly incidental considering that the bulk of the contact is against the defender's shoulder.

It looks like A1 used his left hand to help elevate himself beyond B1.
Btw, I have a block here since the defender did not have LGP until after A1 is already in his habitual shooting motion and first contact is initiated by B1. A1's left hand comes into play after these two factors. Last edited by #olderthanilook; Wed Jan 20, 2016 at 04:00pm. |

I did notice that also.

It's not. But for fun, I analyzed it from that perspective, and under the rule that only lasted a year or two, this would have been a block. As it is, we have the torso argument, and the left arm argument. 50/50 from here. I'd love to get a look from C's angle, and I wouldn't question his reasoning regardless because this was very close for lots of reasons. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

No call or block. Shooter gets the whole right side of his body (arm and leg) past the defender before the slight contact occurs. If defender doesn't embellish then we have nothing to rule on. He caused the problem so its probably why he got the block in this case.

Defense "didn't do anything wrong" BUT he did get the block foul. There was a "problem".....and the official resolved it. Some here say it was done correctly...and some say incorrectly. Bottom line: On Block/Charges, there are the obvious ones where 90% of officials agree and then there are the ones where officials split 50/50 or 60/40. Its all subjective applications of the rules...100% of officials will never agree.......fun to discuss though. ![]()

I'm also refraining from making a conclusive judgement until I see a view the baseline camera. I will say, if I was the slot, I would want my cadence on the whistle to be a bit slower.....to allow the lead a first crack at this play.
