VIDEO: 6-foot Aaron Brooks denies 7-foot Nikola Vucevic at the rim

Aaron Brooks doesn't block shots often, but when he does, they're hard to forget.

Brooks recorded his 54th block in the 401st game of his NBA career on Tuesday, as it turns out Tom Thibodeau's defensive system in Chicago even utilizes 6-foot point guards as rim protectors.

And poor, poor Vucci Mane. Seven-foot Orlando Magic center Nikola Vucevic drove the lane looking to jam on a seemingly empty Bulls backline, only for Brooks to deny his dunk attempt at its apex.

A 7-foot player dunking, blocked by a 6-foot player. You'll be hearing about this one, Vucevic.
