He gave a motion that indicated what he was calling. Not showing is putting up a single fist indicating only foul and giving NO visual cues to which way you're going. That official skipped that and went straight to the block signal. What he did was the first part of a block and everyone knows it.

Anyone that thinks that official was doing anything other than calling a block and that his motions were anything other than part of the block signal is delusional. You're letting your desire to not have a blarge cloud what is obvious.

So they have to get all the way to the hips? If he stops 1" from his hips and does it 3-4 times, it isn't a block? Yeah, right. :/
