Ref Takes Blocked Shot Off Face

During the second quarter of Tuesday's marquee matchup between the Thunder and the Clippers, Caron Butler came up with a big block on Serge Ibaka - a feat in itself given that it's usually Ibaka doing the swatting.

But the real story on the play in question was that Butler spiked his block directly into referee Derek Richardson's face, who goes down like a knocked out prize fighter.

Have a look:

Richardson shook it off after the initial knockdown.
