hm. Why would it be interesting? I think it tells more about the players he went up against, then about himself, no?a horrible player could have 0 shots blocked because he never faced a decent blocker in his face, while a more then average player can get many shots blocked because he played "magic Block Maniac" a lot of times in his carreer...But then again, this may be true for most other shooting statistics.

NBA stats are manipulated, but thats not the question...http://deadspin.com/5336974/an-assist-for-nick-van-exel-how-an-nba-scorekeeper-cooked-the-booksYou surely meant to say "Nick Van Exel's assist stats were manipulated in home games at one point in time"...

The original Van Exel incident is well-know. That's also the only case for which there is factual evidence. Everything else, as the author himself admits, is allegations with little support.
