Big Ben's "Big Block"

Did anyone realize that Big Ben's Block against Shaq last night was only the 4th of the entire series for the defensive player of the year? But more importantly, did anyone else catch how classic Shaq's comments were after the game?

After the game, when Shaq was asked about the play, he replied in typical Shaq fashion, "That was a foul.... You know it was a foul don't ask dumb questions."

My question is, could there be a better response? What would you say if this happened to you?

Maybe the one time that he blocks Shaq all year got him all excited?

Greatest block of all time. Hands down. Shaq has no game just size.

Even if it was a stuff, there may have been contact on the elbow.

I just watched the clip on "youtube." If there was contact, it was marginal. The only reason to call a foul on the play would be because Shaq is a superstar.

Got to differentiate between "contact" and "foul." Virtually every play in the paint involves contact, but honestly, this is perhaps the cleanest block I've ever seen. Boner or not.
