Block, only because of the little side step after Durant went into the air.

In real time it looked like a charge but clearly replay show block. If that wasn't Durant it would have been called a charge but Heat fans shouldn't complain as if anyone knows what a superstar call is, it's them. PEACE.

It's close, but Battier sidesteps to slide under Durant while Durant is in the air - block

If he hadn't shuffled his feet at the end, he still would have received contact and should have received a charge.

best left at a no call

one can argue kd left his feet before shane established position and vice versa.
kd wasn't really challenged in the air, and he still shoulda made the shot.

And smh at no call. You can't have bodies strewn about the middle of the lane and the play continuing. JVG is from another time. That can't happen in todays NBA.

Charge for sure. Battier got in position in plenty of time.
