    Video: Blake Griffin dunk has us eagerly awaiting the All-Star game

    By Kelly Dwyer | Ball Don't Lie – Thu, Feb 23, 2012 12:25 PM EST

    The last full night of games (Thursday's four-game slate doesn't really count) before the All-Star break is always a lot of fun; because with just 30 players headed to the actual All-Star game and the playoff brackets just about set up, there are a whole lot of players going through the motions. This is why you'll see things like Phoenix Suns coach Alvin Gentry's hilarious rant against his listless team following a loss, or JaVale "I really don't care anymore" McGee's awful goaltend.

    For those that do have something to play for, like the Los Angeles Clippers' Blake Griffin, you'll also get a nice preview of what you can hopefully expect both during this weekend's festivities, and this spring's playoffs. Like this incredible dunk:

      Overrated, big-market team. If the Clippers lose to OKC 140-8, all the ESPN highlights will show is Blake Griffin dunking his way to a game-high 4 points.

      Has anyone ever seen a highlight of Griffin doing anything other than dunking?

        the dude only gets like 6 points a game from dunks, and he averages 21. he makes some amazing post moves at times, only reason you don't see them because they are overshadowed by his dunks.

      Just curious, l like Blake but right now that`s all he has got, is anyone in NBA going to try and step up and take a charge or they afraid of being on the highlight reels?

      too bad he one dimensional,all he can do is ''dunk''..it seem's like if all you can do is ''dunk'',but have no real overall skill,then you are considered on your way to legendary status..where have the ''fundamentals'' gone???the real talent(i.e bein able to do more then just dunk)???

        Dude, B.Griffin has a lot of skill! He is agressive, gets to the free throw line, and has some great post moves. Have you actually watched his games? or do you continue to just watch highlights??

      If Blake can expand his game by hitting some outside shots, not 3 pointers, mind you, and work on his FTs, he could be a MVP candidate in a few years.

      Too bad Griffin can't shoot from the field or the line. Players today have no fundamentals or desire to play team basketball. The NBA is one giant sleeping pill.

      Yahoo videos suck! You need to stop the video before it ends the replay it, otherwise it will automatically go to the next video without a link to the last video.

      wait for Blake turns 30-ish. Vince Carter spent most of his playing time dunking during vinsanity days, but has now tamed his game to 3-pointers and floaters...
