Block/Charge ...

I'm going with a block just based on the contact from the left shoulder to the right leg.

In the NBA, it has to be a 100%, no doubt about it, run over for this particular play to be called an offensive foul. If there's any debate or doubt, then they're going block.

I just think it's a philosophy in the NBA and D1 basketball that on high flying, athletic plays like this the defense needs to clearly be legal.

Green might still be moving left / straightening up when White leaves the ground. And, NBA might have the "LGP at the time of upward motion" rule that NCAA tried for a year or so (I don't know whether they do; just speculating).

I got a charge or a no call. For one his left foot is in place before the player moves off the floor. But again the NBA might have a different line of demarcation here, but at the NCAA level and NF level, I have a charge.

Defender sticks his leg into the path, way outside of his own natural cylinder, and is still getting his torso to that spot when contact occurs.

I do not see anyone sticking out their leg. I honestly barely see contact. So that is why I said I might go no call if I see it that clearly. But on any 50/50 play, the defender is getting the benefit from me. If you don't they will try that mess all game and we will have to keep ruling on these plays.
