Agree. But it was still fun to watch back then, and, at least for me, today. Willis Reed, of the New York Knicks, used similar tactics, not trying to block every shot, but waiting for the right time, right player, right place, etc. Today, players try to block just about every shot that they have any chance to block. Certainly makes for a more physical game, a more difficult game to officiate, and some may say, a more exciting game.

Thanks for taking a look at the video guys. I hope that you got some enjoyment out of it, and didn't find it a complete waste of your time.
