Clean Block or a Foul?

Not a good way to start your question. The amount of contact is not the sole determining factor for whether it's incidental or illegal. Inicidental contact may, in fact, be quite severe.

There are two questions that matter.

1. Did the defender do anything wrong? I (and a few others) don't think he did, so we stop asking at this point.

For those who think he did, the next question is whether the shooter was disadvantaged or displaced. He was obviously displaced, so calling the foul would follow.
