Bruce 06 on Dirk, Manu 17 on Harden

[LaMarcus Bryant]

Two best blocks in Spurs history :toast

Manu's wins between the two of course.

[urunobili]

The title clinching block Bowen on Chauncey Billups is more similar to Manu's than the Dirk one that has a statue on its own.

[LongtimeSpursFan]

Bowen-Billups circa 2005 ranks up there as well.

06... Damn makes me feel old. Mirror images though those two blocks :tu

[rasuo214]

Kawhi on Westbrook was pretty good.

[RodNIc91]

Clearly you are missing THE best block in that span:

Manu's was 2nd best, though

Was that a must win high stakes game?

Bruce's block was the first thing I thought of :tu Definitely the 2 best blocks in Spurs history especially if we win this series.

Game 6 in the Western Conference Finals, less than a minute left in OT, 1 point game, with Tony Parker out due to injury.

Speaking of blocks, gotta love the constant blockage on Harden in the clutch:

Yeah. I had flashbacks when Manu went for the block. However this time he got it pretty clean.

TBH, Manu did get a little bit of Harden's head at the end. But you could also argue Harden's flopping made it seem that way.

[adonis827]

old spurs fans definitely had flashbacks of Manu's foul on dirk on that one.

But the block was all ball. The ball touched harden's head afterwards.

Hell yeah. I didn't feel good about the block until the buzzer sounded and there were no whistles. Then it was awesome. But during the act, I was just worried it would be a foul.

[LaMarcus Bryant]

Pretty much yeah :lol. And it lead to 5 :lobt:

Yeah. This manu block just seemed more...gutsy and clutch. Game winning block. Literally.

Harden throwing his head back to try and get a call :lol

[EIC]

Is the Kawhi/Westbrook technically a steal, though? Curious how it was officially recorded.

If so, that gets my vote for best steal and this for best block.

Simply amazing Manu!

[Aztecfan03]

Kawhi's block is easily the best
