Tough call to make. The replay does show the defender moving upon impact. The official made a god call afaict.

Moving in what manner? If a coach asked you why you called a block on this play, would you be able to explain it to him?

Same as mine probably.

"Coach, the offensive player tried to go around the defender. From my angle it looked like the defender moved into the offensive players path while the shooter was airborne. It was close, but my initial reaction was 'block'"

Way too many words and way too many that can be used against you ("it looked like" and "my initial reaction")

Try to keep it to five words or fewer (might not always be possible, but it will get you movign in the right direction)/

Every step he took is a back pedal. How was he moving into him?

OK I can see that from the video and I don't disagree with you. But in reality the official who made the call is looking at the play from a different view and may have seen it differently. He certainly didn't hesitate on making his call.

How does taking a step back equate to moving "into" him?

I'm guessing the call was made because either a) the official just missed it or b) the official buys into the "must be set" myth.

A) Yes, the defender was moving upon, even prior to impact -- legally, having establishing LGP.

B) The official did not make a god call, as it was incorrect and God doesn't make mistakes.

C) I know a handful of languages, but am having trouble translating "god call afaict." A little help here?

LGP was established, he is allowed to move!!!

In my opinion, the official blew this one...I would have had a charge.
