Block
I have a block. I don't feel Battier established/obtained LGP before Pierce went airborne. It doesn't look like he ever got two feet on the floor while he was facing Pierce.

In my high school game, player control foul.

Really? I think in real time, under NBA rules, I would have been more shocked if it was called a charge...especially when we get a view from the baseline camera.

Agreed. That play looks very different from the baseline camera than it does from the other views.

Once I saw the endline view, I immediately switched to block. He never made it entirely in front of him and was still sliding sideways into his path at the time of contact. It is all about having the right angle.

My motivation for requesting this video is that I had a charge, and perhaps others could see something that I didn't. I didn't see the end line view at the time. As soon as I saw the view from the end line, I got it. Easy block. I suppose this could be an illustration of how vital angles really are.

Cool, but given how close it is - with Battier's right foot not settling until Pierce has a toe on the floor - I can see how this was called a block.

I have a charge in the rules I am used to. I would suspect this is also a charge in the NBA based on what I know, but I am not totally sure about that.
