I'm not really getting this. He didn't fully flush it because he got fouled in the air by Perkins, which, to me, makes it more difficult. He was only able to throw it down after Perkins hits him in mid-air because he's so much higher off the ground, so there is not stopping it despite the foul.
The foul makes it more difficult to do it and he couldn't really do it and just almost kinda throws in it which is less impressive to me. I like a dunk where they power through and slam it home strong. Blakes dunk looks great live action but in slow mo it's not nearly as great as a dunk like this IMO http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=L4PvpJW5A50#!
You know the Clippers have made it as one of the top teams of the NBA when people can find ways to criticize this one play in so many different angles. People really do hate success.
Dead serious. He did the exact same thing last year. I'd take this over it (BTW, one of the most underrated dunks ever): <object width="420" height="315"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BZdik09RGJI?version=3&hl=en_US&start=55"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BZdik09RGJI?version=3&hl=en_US&start=55" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="420" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object> Or maybe to it to the greatest shot blocker of all time, in his prime: <object width="420" height="315"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ifx_gRF-ouU?version=3&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ifx_gRF-ouU?version=3&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="420" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object> And in case you forgot, the same dunk: <object width="560" height="315"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/aspCHyeOLPQ?version=3&hl=en_US&start=31"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/aspCHyeOLPQ?version=3&hl=en_US&start=31" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>
I heard some guys at work talk about Perkin's dunk today and saw it had its own thread so I was prepared for a massive dunk...especially considering it Griffin. Then I opened the thread... For the next 60 seconds all I could say was.... OH MY GOD
I hated a lot of Dwights superman dunk cuz he just threw it in but this dunk is awesome. Did it over Perkins, in a real game situation.. Man it was awesome
Griffin's dunk was awesome, I'm not gonna hate. But let's take a look at the original "lob city." <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Wnz95vZn7ig" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
