I disagree. I don't see how anyone can say there's not a foul on the play when the camera angle is completely different than the angle the Lead had. No, if you had been the Trail, opposite, you may not have a call but the Lead has a different look.

Would you concede that the camera angle is good enough to rule out a block?

Gotta love the AAU parents running up and down the sidelines after each close call.

No, I wouldn't. If an airborne defender jumps into the path of the shooter and there's contact with the body, that's a block. A defender can be airborne and still commit a block.

In the end, whether it's called a push or a block is in material if the Lead feels there was contact that placed the shooter at a disadvantage.

I agree with that. What I said was, I don't see a foul.

I agree as well. I should have qualified my statement by saying from the camera angle shown, I didn't have a call.

Also here's the embedded video for everyone's convenience.
