In the case of the video the lateral movement taken by the defender changed the defense's angle and stopped the defender from facing the ball carrier and gave the dribbler an attack line that the defense no longer had LGP established for. So shoulder to shoulder contact results in a block.


If that is too convoluted.

BLOCK.

I don't believe you have to face your opponent to maintain LGP... Just to establish.
