I agree completely.

I watched it three times and have no problem with the L's call. Two feet on the floor, back pedaling, hit outside the RA. To me, he established LGP and never lost it. I get that others disagree.

Just watched it again and I would have to go with the PC as well. Watching the feet of both players closely..the defender mirrors the shooter pretty well.

But with the restricted area, I thought that had to be a secondary defender to be an automatic block, no? Wouldn't he be considered the primary defender on the play?

Awfully close, even in slo-mo. I can understand the call at regular speed....Looks like a PC, but I could also live with a block. Good call in that he sold it well.

Any out-numbered fast break all defenders are considered secondary

Pretty hard to see from this angle imo. Regardless of the correctness of the call I have two points:
- C should never signal blocking here and just leave it to L to avoid a blarge like this.
- L definitely has some guts making that call. I think quite a number of officials would call that a block where it should've been a charge, simply because of the dunk.
