Damn, way to throw shade on that one!
You are correct, it was 14 minutes and he only blocked 6 pretty easy shots, as you said. You wouldn't want to be the jerk who demolished an amateur, especially knowing he could have been on your team. I suppose there is some honor to this, similar to chopping off someone's head after he dropped his sword.
