| 0:06.3 | or the slow motion video of him actually making the block more? |
| 0:11.5 | Slow motion one is pretty crazy. |
| 0:13.7 | Just because he felt like he was 20 feet in the air. |
| 0:17.2 | And his wingspan, that's just an incredible block. |
| 0:22.8 | When you watch NBA games, I don't think people realize, |
