Question about Stat on Foul - Block

Maybe what I am also saying is that if the call was during the block, I would agree, but since the foul occurred after the shot, that is why I am asking. I guess it doesn't matter too much as long as I consistantly apply the same rule the rest of the season.

Personally, if it was clearly after the block, I'd give them the block. But, I'm an official. There are a few stat folks around here that would know more than I do on this, though. Perhaps Statman will answer.
