Battier's been doing that for years...they've highlighted him doing that to Kobe for years. Typically, you'll see him put the hand to the face during a shot...which wouldn't be a technical foul. And for clarification's sake, it's considered face guarding in the NBA only if a player places a hand, from behind, in a player's face who doesn't have possession of the ball.

Chaos isn't a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some, given a chance to climb, they refuse. They cling to the realm, or the gods, or love. Illusions.

Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is.
