    Hey guys,

    I was trying to find video of the huge block Brooks did on the Jefferson dunk attempt during the Spurs game. Anyone have a link?

    I also found these highlights somebody made but no block. I still thought it was a good mix. Some nasty crossovers:

    On a side note, I wish we'd make the alternates our permanents and get a white/red version for home. I can't stand our regular jerseys.

    It was a nice play, but calling it a "huge block" is easily an overstatement.

    How is it not impressive when a barely 6' player manages to single handledly block an attempted dunk where it was a 3 on 1 situations and the dunker was running full speed towards the basket from beyond the half-court line?

    I would count that as impressive.

    I think he was saying that the block itself wasn't huge.

    I agree that it was very impressive for the reasons you stated.
