A1 is on the side of the lane driving toward the basket, B 1 and B2 are sliding over to a defensive position. They are in the spot for a full 2-3 seconds. A1 starts a drive into them not touching them until he is up in the air, while he is in the air the arms of B1,B2,are goining up into a horizontal position, A1 gets hit buy the arms of the defenders and falls to the ground losing the ball. I was positioned where I could see the play in front of me. I called no foul. was it right??? It is time to become an official and not a fan.

Do you mean the arms of the defenders were raised within their VERTICAL plane? If so, I'd say you had the call correctly. Both defedners can jump vertically and occupy the space within their vertical plane. If they were leaning forward outside their plane, it's a blocking foul.
