Yes, I know what the rule is. I was speaking specifically about the play in the video. Perhaps I didn't make that clear.

This is clearly a block to me. Moving over while the shooter was airborne. Easy call if you ask me.

Peace

Sincere question.
I'm not convinced the defense was but if the defense was already in the path when the offensive player went air born then the extra sideways movement is irrelevant correct?

It depends on whether that "extra sideways movement" created contact that would not have existed without it. (said without watching the play) In most cases, any movement more than just a little bit will be deemed to have done so (and, thus, create a defensive foul)
