5'9 Nate Robinson blocking 7'6 Yao Ming

[@alexdavidson7557]

I was waiting for someone to comment that

[@smokendsleep722]

or when he blocked lebron

[@ducthien1285]

That's monter block

[@aknkkalacanovic4923]

@MAN UTD did we ask

[@ARedOctober]

@MAN UTD What the hell are you on? clearly your not foreign because soccer is called foot ball and "foot ball" is called american foot ball

[@thatsthatbull7515]

Big Bens block on Shaq should be here

[@CrazyGaming-wm1kh]

greatest block of all time

[@hparas1]

that was a foul

[@kuzeytekinoglu223]

ThatsThatBull definitely I was looking for this comment

[@jbtaco1]

@@hparas1 no it wasn't. All ball

[@treytrent]

LBJ's block on Iggy in G7 will be on future editions of this. Incredible.

[@SomewhatInteresting]

Best block of all time, possibly could've lost the game if he doesn't block him thrtr

[@alejandromadera597]

this was made 1 year ago

[@jcfly6273]

+Alejandro Madera he said it will be on future editions

[@ratkovac7]

PigPlays [HD] Nope, Kyrie closed and would have scored more if needed, that block was jr too, who made igoudala swerve down a bit before laying it up, and james touched the rim with his other hand which is goaltending, but you know, hes lebron he can do whatever he wants and will be called goat by idiots who are the MAJORITY

[@Yesidfrc]

@@ratkovac7 Well my friend, if many players do those kind of blocks in games 7 during final minutes, ok. But that was pure concentration, and the goaltending was not seen at the moment, so deal with it. And Kyrie would have scored more if needed, as if it were the same if Iggy made the lay up. It would have change everything.

[@waluigidimaio6745]

The block by Prince was actually better than all the others. The best ever

[@blueflamexl9880]

There's LeBron's block on Iggy

[@philliptanner5313]

"Block heard round the world"

[@timtaylor8937]

By far. That block won them a championship. They go down 2 games to the pacers if he doesn’t make that play

[@yotamshohat9394]

What about Chamberlain's block on Kareem's skyhook?

[@iheartbong]

+Yotam Shohat Wilt has is own top ten skyhook blocks alone.

[@nuntluangachenkual6135]

also the block by Chris Webber

[@abc123836]

Goaltending

[@Johnkoth]

Not goaltending

[@talshenhav5108]

Yotam Shohat אתה מישראל?

[@brianhill2171]

One of my favorites that isn't on here is Mark Eaton catching a dunk without jumping. Also, banged-up old man Wilt's back to back rejections on Kareem's (the 11 years younger, healthy reigning MVP) skyhooks. If there was footage, possibly the GOAT block is Wilt rejecting (and catching) a Gus Johnson (freak athlete built like a truck) dunk so hard he dislocated Gus' shoulder

[@KinnereyB]

No Hakeem? No Dikembe? No Shaq? No Mark Eaton? I know we don't have tape of Russell...what about the MJ block on Ewing when he sent it into about the 9th row?

[@thatguywithalongnamejr3226]

Brian Kinary The fact that Dwight Howard is the thumbnail and he isn't in the video

[@KinnereyB]

LeQueen James Yet another sign that not much thought went into this "top 10" list. I can think of 3 Jordan blocks alone that belong on this list and he wasn't a shot blocker (well, he could do everything. But he wasn't KNOWN as a shot blocker). BTW, I like your screen name! LeQueen! I usually call him LeBrick but I like LeQueen Le Lot too. Although all feeling for the dude aside and just being a straight up subjective basketball fan, this postseason is the best ball I've ever seen him play. But PLEASE - EVERYONE. Stop with the Jordan comparisons. Please just stop. MJ went to 6 consecutive Finals, won all 6 without one series going 7 games, won all 6 MVP's...oh, and dude fucking retired for two years and played AA Professional Baseball when the last time he played was back before he was even a teenager! Then he sees he can help the Bulls, and the rest is history. First full season back, another 3-Peat with a completely different supporting cast apart from Scottie. Rodman was a huge additon, gotta have garbage players who play D hard all the time and can occasionally sorta score on broken plays or offensive boards. Michael Jeffrey Jordan is the GOAT. To even be in the same language let alone the same sentence as Michael, LeBron still has a LONG way to go.

[@josephac29]

Brian Kinary so you think Jordan blocking ewings shot from behind(like that's never been done) belongs over anything on this list?

[@marclesterfragata5773]

One solution, make your own top 10 list and stop whining, simple as that.

[@KinnereyB]

Marc Fragata Mmmm. Nah. You put a video out with a public forum people have the right to say what they want about whatever they want. Plus, there really are a shitload of problems with this list.

[@goldmankwezi]

Tayshaun's playoff block on Reggie, has to be the greatest... it came out of nowhere from an unbelievable distance... that effort!!!

[@cflo1386]

In any list Prince's block should be number one, due to the importance of the block and playoff implications.

[@dmware]

Agreed

[@armagetronfasttrack9808]

I think LeBron's block supersedes that now...

[@cflo1386]

Armagetron Fasttrack I would have to agree with that.

[@jbrown563]

nope tayshauns is better than lbj.

[@zayturna8612]

💯💯

[@BennyC023]

Nate Robinson blocks yao ming?

[@panorama6311]

Yes

[@DreiK96]

That should be the best block of all time

[@polat7795]

yeah but slaps him in the eye right after so not that cool

[@afrochaltey]

Nah.

[@bojanangjeleski138]

@M Who the fu.. asked you ? Boyo ?

[@mytowntrill5441]

Chamberlain blocks Abdul-Jabbar's Sky-Hook, Olajuwon's block on AC Green dunk in the 1990 playoffs against the Lakers, Olajuwon's block on Michael Jordan's game winner for 3 in 1992, Olajuwon's block on Starks 3-point try in the 1994 Finals, Olajuwon's full court sprint block on Kevin Johnson in 1994 playoffs. #OlajuwonWasNumberOneInBlocksDummy

[@JBuonanno2]

Lebron James game 7 of the 2016 NBA finals block on Andre Iguodala is now the best block of all time

[@deiondre0]

im a warriors fan and my jaw was left hanging after lebron did that. i had too much respect for lebron to be mad though

[@thisistheendpt2]

LaPhonso's block shits all over that one m8.

[@AmariB6737]

Labron at Game 6 blocks Curry's Shot and then talk trash.

[@deiondre0]

+Amari Brooks wow u sound more hurt than the warriors right now, get over it bro

[@AmariB6737]

Actually I'm a cavs fan and I am happy for labron he deserve to win a championships.

[@stephenmack6577]

Coming here after seeing LeBron's SUPERHUMAN block on Igoudala in Game 7 with 2 minutes remaining. That block is now the best ever.

[@GabrielGonzalez-xw3kp]

I was thinking the same thing

[@DrPwoz]

I came here to comment that lol. Best block all time no doubt

[@thisistheendpt2]

Nope. LaPhonso still beats it. LeBron didn't palm the ball. A palm beats a deflection.

[@edroncurada9874]

+KVPD what matters is what the block meant obviously James had the biggest block of all time no doubt.

[@jacobkrause3754]

True that block decided the game

[@ivoivanov361]

LeBron's block on Iggy in game 7 can definitely make top 5 EVER.

[@mebeatyou7057]

Its top 5...

[@rickthesentence6073]

it's #1, no block has ever been so important

[@ccchrv]

That block on Deron Williams does not belong here at all. Hes a PG who was up against 2 fowards. Shannon's brown's pin should have been here

[@NateCJTv]

It was called a foul so technically it isn't a block

[@ccchrv]

NateCJTv We all know that shit was clean. lol ask kobe

[@dookiepossum]

I agree about Deron, same way DeAndre Jordan dunking on a point guard isn't impressive, but people seem to think it is.

[@chiefbeef2059]

exactly, it was a good block but they so much bigger than him

[@Jaceu]

+oc ch So what you're saying is when a pg dunks on a center isn't impressive.

[@hoxtonthebest296]

nice vids man pls keep up de good work

[@andraecusdavis964]

Shannon Brown Block......

[@DEMACVEV0]

Dre Dae Best Block Ever

[@badxgrass]

Jay Onez Yeah man, too bad the ref called it a foul because of how nasty it was.

[@liorkantor7952]

Yup it was a block but the ref called it a foul that's why that's not here...

[@salvadorteran3575]

Dude could jump high asf

[@pnjp3763]

i expected it to be no. 1

[@IFeelWeak]

Tayshaun Prince on Reggie Miller was the best block in NBA history

[@henryesparza2584]

Joshua Jordan Not anymore obviously

[@andijarahman7182]

man u deserve more subs with ur good videos

[@ThingsYouWant2C]

Williams never tried to dunk on anyone again

wat about when nate robinson block lebron james dunk

[@deiondre0]

+Keith Jr Murrell look up thomas robinson on corey brewer. small-time names, big-time block

[@wbexclusive]

Big Ben's block on Shaq should be in the Top 3!

[@streetlights6887]

That was goaltending

[@remediedyawn]

+Street Lights Goaltending on a shot that never left Shaq's hands? I think you are mistaken...

[@danielsegi7829]

If shaq was dunking and ben blocked I wouldve recommended it but nah

[@troy7378]

Great list!

[@RushAnthem69]

I’m just here for Tayshaun but it was nice seeing Maxiell in there too!

[@philliptanner5313]

Where are: Lebron's block on Iguodala Chamberlain's skyhook block Olajuwon mid air block Mutombo's 5 blocks in a row All Manute Bol blocks

[@Jacob-fl6pc]

Great vid! Could you do a top ten paul pierce plays of his career? You could also make it into clutch plays if u wanted to!

[@paksta]

Ok, I'm starting to watch. LaPhonso Ellis better be here............ Oho! Nice work my friend. You had me nervous for a moment.

[@burazz8535]

Thomas Robinsons block? The chase down block on a dunk.

[@donaldjohnson7207]

The Block shot to me of all-time was completed by "Wilt Chamberlain"...in the mid 60s...Wilt not only blocked a shot that was at the very top of the backboard...which is about 13ft high...He engulfed it with one hand in mid-air not allowing the ball to touch the very tip of the backboard with one hand...brought it down and turned into a point guard and started a fast break the other way...Check out the history and dominance of "Wilt Chamberlain"!...real talk...

[@BoosterGoldEarth6]

Which one, he done that a few times. He was unreal

[@alexisreategui9644]

KEEP SENDING MORE OF THIS

[@MethodicalMercenary]

Lol at the people correcting the list. This is a solid list that reminds us how much more physically talented NBA players are than most of the rest of us. Just enjoy it- it doesn't matter who makes the list, no one is gonna agree on the top 10 blocks of all time. This was a very good list.

[@philippe4086]

I expected to see Laphonso number one... and it was Laphonso! I remember this incredible block for ever

[@marcvasegaard3362]

Great video, was expecting the Blake Griffin 180 block to be in there though.

[@TylerShelt]

I'm your 40,000th subscriber

[@Shadojoker]

Excellent video man!!! But where is Laphonso Ellis' infamous dunk block doe??!

[@DCopp]

LaPhonso all day. The Tayshaun one prob meant the most though.

[@BeefPapa]

olajuwon on kevin johnson and/or rod strickland

[@VinceCarterJR11]

Cool vidéo

[@Duxazz]

Nice top. Maybe u should include one of Nate's blocks on Lebron or Yao, but anyway great video

[@kalee6]

Where is Ben Wallace murdering Shaq?

[@1970barzo]

hahaha yeah!

[@zmenace4776]

Where's Ben wallaces block on shaq

[@anonymoustangerine]

I’ve never seen like 6 of these blocks before the video, but im glad i saw them now

[@alexlanza79]

Finally an "Of All Time" video which goes back, usually Of All Time NBA videos are footage of the last 10 years!!!!

[@kevinmacdonald9269]

For most ppl who makes list "of all time" actually means "from the time that I have been watching the NBA"

[@alexlanza79]

Yes! Sadly I have to agree with you, you're right!

[@nyjelcruz499]

Where's manute bol 4 blocks in a row?

[@manlai3388]

Poor Javale Mcgee's career ruined by that old man Shaq

[@realmatic5401]

1 and 2 are great but that teyshaun prince block at 3 was very special a eastern conference finals game on the line as well

[@lisajeter7796]

Excellent shot blockers in the nba!!!

[@anonymouscitizen8920]

What bout Nate Robinson's blocks on Yao Ming & Shaquille O'Neal

[@donaldjohnson7207]

Wilt also blocked a shot by 6'6" 250lb power forward named Gus Johnson who was trying to dunk on Wilt and the force of Wilt rejecting the dunk dislocated Gus Johnson's shoulder...and again Wilt blocked the shot with one hand and engulfed the ball...play was halted for Gus's injury...No foul was caused...watch those blocked shot highlights of the 60's and 70's...Compare them with the one's you hv ranked now...Then let me hear ur opinion then...lol...Im old school...I wanna offer you a little history lesson...no harm intended... 👌

[@WSFD10]

Reggie Miller face is priceless after he gets embarrassed hahaha

[@donaldjohnson7207]

I realize ur talking the best of a particular decade...but those two blocks I just expressed to you were simply amazing!...

[@Wtfisahandle01]

Kawhi blocking Westbrook in 2014 playoffs should be on here IMO, saved the Spurs on that one, we (Spurs) probably would've lost that game if it wasn't for that block

[@ImSpruic]

I remember that

[@Wtfisahandle01]

+ImSpruic haha I'm sure you do Btw I like the Thunder too, no hate to them

[@xmaxfactorx]

the last one was like, bro just give me that shit.

[@ClassicalMMAChef]

It should have featured one of Hakeem's famous come from behind blocks. Especially the one on Karl Malone's signature dunk.

[@relaxingstudytimemusic]

I was thinking the same thing. When he chased down that trailblazer and blocked him behind, unbelievable.

[@NoName-jb4tl]

You See the Jordan block? Even in Washington this guy was amazing.

[@peterkus]

Nate Robinson on yao? Otherwise, good list

[@seanqw_]

No Nate Robinson on Yao Ming??

[@yvesmassaad]

Nate Robinson on Yao Ming...

[@muntazarrezwi8023]

but I love this channel

[@knotshor469]

Prince on miller is the best ever...that was for the ECF.I remember how huge it was and the announcers talking about how old Reggie had got,younger Reggie woulda dunked and sealed the game

[@frGoon]

Nate Roberson blocking Yao Ming?

[@SparkFreerunning]

i think Blake Griffins 180 block vs the Celtics should be on here

[@justinasz9791]

amazing

[@_Some_Guy_]

you got the number one block right... good work son

[@TheRexrapper]

No Wilt blocking Kareem's sky hook twice?

[@siapapun1964]

[@samuelhat9149]

Greatest block of all time. clean as well sad the refs called it

[@asterisk911]

Kudos to you for emphasizing blocks where the defender retained possession. The previous time I clicked on a "best blocks" video, it emphasized hard blocks that went out of bounds and gave the "blocked" team another chance to score. Yours are better.

[@BoosterGoldEarth6]

So what,. A block a block

[@carloswirti6711]

Really the 1 is animal at the right time and with a tranquility and still came down looking at the camera.

[@HadeyanUtkan]

#5 is nothing.. Deron Williams lose height and speed of his jump.. And easy block for Griffin. İts not even hard one.. no mutombo, no olajuwon, no camby no d-wade no KG

[@siapapun1964]

Utkan Aktaş I agree with this. If u have time and space to count the dunker steps it's easy to block the way too short dunkers. It was just D Will being idiot. LeBron James great timing and keep the ball alive in this list should be in better place

[@HadeyanUtkan]
