Can't find my all time favorite, which I think was the '99 championship run. Shaq tried to take it up against the Twin Towers. Robinson and Duncan both get a hand on the ball and stuff him hard enough to send him tumbling to the floor.
The Wolves game was a blockfest! 12 blocks!!! Yay! Post your favorites here. I will post mine later coz videos sites are not allowed here in my office. But my favorite is the series of blocks Robert Horry had against Cavs...that was crazy...

My all-time favorite block was one by David Robinson on Grant Hill when Grant Hill was still really good and playing in Detroit. Grant goes up for a tomahawk Jam only to have David block the shot from the side. Grant hill falls on the floor. The camera zooms in on his facial expression. It was priceless- He had no clue how his shot got blocked and was absolutely dumbfounded. If Somebody can find the clip of that Block I would be very Grateful as I don't think I have ever seen a block as good as that one.
Here's one of my favorites. 5-0 meets the President at the summit:
Anybody remember this from Duncan's rookie year?
MJ Blocks him and immediatly on the other end Duncan gets his, swatting MJ's shot.
Rasho's block on Kobe
What made that block so great, of course, was the lead up to Game 1 of the 2007 Finals, which seemed to focus a lot on the fact that Lebron had posterized Duncan in November 2006 -- on the second night of a season-opening back-to-back -- leading to all sorts of claims about Duncan's demise. I didn't take Timmy long to serve notice that he wasn't dead yet.
When he sent that one back, the AT&T Center erupted.
This one was dandy.
Or, how about this one.

LeBron kept a picture of his block on Duncan in his locker that season. Duncan offered to sign it for him as the Finals began.![]()
He's more boss than Chuck Norris!
This is something I am so surprised no one on other teams complain about. Duncan (as much as I love him) always fouls when he goes for blocks. It is smart and subtle however. Notice his off hand on Bynum's hip. That is a foul. Tim always uses that hand to keep people from fully elevating. It is clever, but I am surprised it is never mentioned.
For our sake, lets hope it stays that way!
Niiiiiice....
+1 for the Rasho Bloke on Kobe.

That is why Tim had foul trouble in the Olympics.
*waits for response from 228*
Sorry. I'm not going to go through the Duncan/Olympics thing again.
Robinson's rookie year. In the last couple minutes of the game against the Knicks, Ewing pushes Robinson out of bounds to receive an entry pass. Ewing gets the pass and elevates for a monster dunk only to have Robinson recover from under the basket to sky and block the dunk dead on. Unbelievable play. Nobody had ever seen a 7 footer with that kind of quickness before.
LOL, would you like me to sign that for ya kid, before we go out there and sweep you out of the series..
The clip Duncan said it in is quite funny. I'll see if I still have it. A reporter told him that LeBron had the pic hanging in his locker and just the way he responded, with a little laugh and "I'll be happy to sign it for him" was classic Duncan.
