If the MVP really is LeBron’s, the guy he might have to hold off down the stretch may not be Kobe Bryant. But rather this freak…Kevin Durant! The kid may not have the catchy nickname yet, or the ubiquitous ad campaign. And the fact that he’s doing it in the O.K.C. is definitely costing him some buzz and pub. But the kid is coming fast! And everyone in the “Association” knows it. And he’s absolutely killing it, every single night.

And was again last night…until this happened!!! “Oh no he didn’t!!!” Freaking Manu Ginobili!!! Manu, had no business trying to block that jam. Much less actually doing it! Even he knows it…“I was expecting to be dunked on, to tell you the truth.” Gotta’ be real with you Manu…I was expecting you to be dunked on too. We all were! And we were all wrong. Because, that was the best swat job I’ve seen since you ended that bat on Halloween.

I didn’t think you could ever top that crazy Jedi move, but you just did. That’s the “Block of the Year” in the NBA. Most guys aren’t looking to jump with Durant, because they know it’s just going to get them on YouTube and it would be horrible for their look. You knew the second Ginobili went up for that block a poster was about to be printed.

We just didn’t know it would end up having a Spurs’ logo stamped on it.
