Kevin Durant Blocks Arron Afflalo With Only One Shoe

By Aron Phillips

In case you missed this over the weekend, in the Thunder’s game against the Nuggets on Friday, Kevin Durant decided to put Arron Afflalo in his place. Other than dropping a cool 30 and getting the W, the Durantula blocked Afflalo with only one shoe.

   Not because of the one shoe block, but this kid is going to be a SuperStar (probably already is). I think he has the potential to be a legendary player. If I’m starting a team tomorrow for the next ten years he’s probably #2 behind Lebron (assuming Kobe doesn’t have ten years left).

   here’s a question
   would he be allowed to use the shoe to block the shot?
   As it’s part of his uniform? As far as i know yes as long as the shot isnt on the way down which would be goal tending

   @ Clay

   The real question is can he do what i like to call a ‘School Yard Block’ i.e Taking off his shoe, waiting under the basket and then lobbing it as hard as he can at any shots.

   The more advanced version of this type of block is of course taking your shoe off, grabbing it by the laces, swinging round your head and catapulting it at the incoming ball.

   As long as it isn’t goaltending.

   And he doesn’t kill any fans.

   No way that was a foul…any contact was created by Afflalo.
