You're really going to call a block on B2, standing still, just because he's guarding someone else when he gets ran over by A1?

No, when I think about it obviously not. I guess I just am not sure if I've ever seen this happen.

If the defender is stationary before contact (and before a player becomes airborne) then LGP doesn't apply/matter.

Makes sense. Thanks for the help.
