    Did he touch rim? It was a nice offensive move but did he touch the rim?

    Another Blake Griffin dunk where he holds his defender down with his off arm and pushes up, giving the impression that he has a great hangtime when in reality, pushing off his defender adds that little fraction of a second in the air.

    That wasnt a dunk, he just threw the ball in because he didnt make it all the way to the rim

    Every single Blake dunk would be immediately better if DeAndre Jordan didn't act like an 8 year old...

    Exactly, it was an impressive offensive move, but an actual slam dunk on yo momma facial grill is not what that was.

    ummm, that makes no sense in this case. His off arm in no way gave him any extra hang time. Physics

    Anyone else think they look like brothers?....Besides the obvious of course. I never thought about it until a friend of mine was watching a game against Clippers with me and he doesn't watch basketball. He thought Blake Griffin was married to Kim Kardashian. Then I noticed how similar they look.

    In before someone says: "who says white men can't jump?"

    Blake Griffin was born to an African American father and a Caucasian mother. He is part haitian african american and caucasian.

    why do people still acknowledge these as dunks? If you dont touch rim, its not a f-ing dunk. feel the same way about dwight's superman "dunk" in the contest a few years ago.

    From Merriam-Webster:

    dunk shot noun
    : a shot in basketball made by jumping high into the air and throwing the ball down through the basket


    Doesn't say anything about touching the rim.
