Re: Kobe's AMAZING block on Michael Redd... I still think that was a goaltend. The ball had left his hands, and it's hard to see(sh*t quality, bad footage), but I don't know if it touched the backboard. Another blown call. Booooo!

Re: Kobe's AMAZING block on Michael Redd... I agree with the first post, didnt take much skill, just very nice timing.

Yall wanna talk about BLOCKS???!!!!!!!Greatest blocked shot of all time. Also consider the time of the game, the score, and the situation (Detroit down 1-0 in the series)Greatest block of all time.</div>That's not the greatest block ever, Bill Russell did that 5 times a game for his entire career. Wilt Chamberlain had so much hops, he actually caught 15 foot jumpshots at the peak of their arcs.And Nitro, I swear to you there was a block Kobe made where he caught it. I just don't know where to find it. Good find on the Jordan block though.
Re: Kobe's AMAZING block on Michael Redd... Blocks are all about great timing. Timing is a skill. Not many could have blocked that shot without fouling. Bill Russel DID do that 5 times a game. But I was simply talking about the time that occured. Pistons down 1-0 in the series.
