Our training here is that lead has half of the lane. If he's looking at the other half, he needs to rotate. Note, for technical reasons, I haven't seen the play, I'm just responding to the idea that the lead has the entire lane in three-person.

I have a question: why do those of u who said block, have a block?? This seems to be a clear cut block, the player continues to slide over and towards the off. Player after he has went airborne and correct me if I'm wrong but a player is allwed to establish LGP and move to maintain, but he must be in position to take the contact once the off. Player has went airborne, correct?

Correct, a player may move to maintain LGP but must be in the path before the opponent becomes airborne.

I don't understand your question. You asked why they're saying it's a block and proceed to explain why it's a block? Where is the disconnect?
