What follows is one of the best athletes in all of sports elevating and punching the hell out of Shved’s attempt, launching it like it was shot out a t-shirt cannon. Read More »

Kobe Bryant was some kind of comic book character last night in Portland, flooding the Blazers with never-ending buckets and dimes/open looks for his teammates. In the wave of Kobe hellfire came this Trey Burke-style swat on Will Barton, who was thinking he was about to get himself a fast break dunk highlight on SportsCenter. This time though, there was no foul call: Read More »

This happened the other night in the Clippers/Nets game, but with it being a holiday and all, it’s likely that a lot of people missed this Blake Griffin block on Deron Williams. It needs to be seen. The sound that the block makes on the first part of the clip is crazy: Read More »

Before watching this chase-down block, let me remind you: Dwyane Wade is 6-4, 220 pounds. Eric Bledsoe, on the other hand, is a mere 6-1, 195 pounds. What an impressive stuff. Read More »

This play happened on Friday night, but it would be a crime if most of our readers missed it. We’ve know for a while that Andre Miller is actually super sneaky with his hops [EVIDENCE HERE], breaking them out just enough so that we all know what’s up.

In the flow of their entertaining loss to the Kings last night, Singler provided an incredible block on a Kings fast break when Aaron Brooks tried to toss an oop to Jimmer Fredette. The sequence starts at the :45 mark: Read More »
