Rule of Cool says that looks really cool if you're a Spurs fan but I'm not and therefore that makes it not very cool when it happens against my team

Unfortunately, the block wasn’t legal as he pulled the net to help stabilize himself while sabonis was laying it up.

WHY DOESNT HE JUST DO THIS EVERY TIME!?? LOL

u/Mac-042 3h ago

Most teams won’t leave the lane wide open like this. Plus self lob counts as a shot so if there are people in front of him, they can box out

u/SmartPomegranate9111 3h ago

Yeah, that’s true. Most teams won’t leave the lane wide open, and if defenders are in front of him, they can box him out since the self-lob counts as a shot. It’s a lot harder to pull off when teams know it’s coming.

u/WTF4211 4h ago

Sick but shouldn’t be able to grab your own miss if it’s not blocked or doesn’t hit rim.
