Iggy one literally saved the game and took the crowd/momentum out of the Warriors
A series clincher

The first one is, as been mentioned, one of the greatest blocks in NBA history. At least in terms of significance. Originally Posted by Nash

Re: Which block is better - Splitter vs Igoudala
The one against Splitter was great as a defensive play...but that gloating at the end
Really, guy? It was just frontrunning LeBron at his finest.
The chasedown on Iggy, on the other hand...everything a basketball play needs to be truly epic. Tied score with 2 minutes left in the 4th quarter of a Game 7 in the NBA finals. If Iggy makes that layup, all signs point to a classic Golden State run at home. Instead, LeBron puts the kibosh on that and leads his team from a 3-1 deficit in the NBA Finals all the way to the championship. Definitely moved up some spots on my all-time list after that one.

Easily Igoudala because of context.

Also, what most people don't remember (and I should try to find the game footage with this) is that that block sparked a crazy four-play sequence for the Heat that killed any hopes of the Spurs winning that game. It was something like: Lebron block, Wade dunk, Lebron steal, Ray 3. I'm surprised sports media has never highlighted that sequence.

Re: Which block is better - Splitter vs Igoudala
I mean yeah the Iggy block was way better.
An underrated LeBron block was when he was leading the charge in the 4th against San Antonio in Game 6. He got Duncan at a pivotal time of the game momentum wise where it really seemed like he was in a 6 or 7 minute zone where he could do almost no wrong to pull them back from down 10. It was really the only time in the series before Game 7 where we saw the King really go insane and just say you know what, you're not stopping me.
A lot of people forget about how great he was in the 4th that game because of the late turnovers and Ray's heroics.
