Correct, but if the defender/blocker bumps into the hurdler, the defender gets a penalty for interferring with hurdling (provided the hurdler is moving foward or the ball is higher than the lane dividor). While it is risky and requires some good drivers not to run into the shooters, it can be very effective. One of the best plays I've seen this year was 537 block both 1625's and 1730's potential hurdles. It was very cool.
