Perk is a top defender in the league and Griffin sized him up and just straight shat on him.

It was an impressive Dunk but Perkins just threw his body into him.

Blake was so much higher up that Perkins couldn't even contest it.

Still he dunks all over Perk and it was a sick a** dunk but I think the Lebron dunk was more difficult and amazing.

It was just a normal dunked on dunk but it looked extra vicious because of how high up Blake got and because Perkins threw his body into him.

This dunk is a different than Mozgov, because Perkins attempted to challenge the shot. Mozgov didn't. The fact Perkins was up in the air, and if you watch the replay Griffin's momentum in the air was able to push against Perkins was amazing. Great dunk.

Lucas: 5'11'
Perkins: 6'10'

LBJ's doesn't hold a candle to Blake's

But he didn't jump OVER him. He just dunked on him (some will argue whether or not it's even a dunk), big difference.

And, Bron's was harder because he didn't jump with the ball in his hand. Do people know how hard it is to do what Bron did?

Try jumping over something small at least knee level but don't look down, and have somebody throw you something. Now... not only jump over something while keeping your eye on the thrown object, but maintaining complete control and catching the object.... that shit is utterly ridiculously hard to do. And Bron not only did that but made the dunk in a game! Something like that is hard to pull off in a dunk contest and they usually use chairs or a 5 foot person bending down in front of the rim, knowing what they're gonna do... yet they usually tend to fail.

BG's dunk was dope and all, but still not more amazing than Bron's. Bron's is a rare perhaps once in a lifetime type of dunk.

Although the elevation and the fact that he did it over Perkins was impressive the Dunk itself was not so crazy... he didn't even grab the rim and may not have even touched it.

I dont see why people are going nuts over it.

Because he went over the top on one of the best defending centers in the league that has 10-20 pounds on him and stuffed it down his throat full extension.

2011-12 Amar'e: 17.7/8.2/1.3 on 42.8%

but Blake is better than career Amar'e

You made it sound like Perkins having 20lbs over Griffin means anything.. he has like 60 lbs and 6 or 7 inches on Wade and Wade through it down on his head. Perkins' size doesnt mean anything for shotblocking.. he cant jump and he doesn't have a monster wingspan.

People taking Bron's dunk over this are smoking terrible things. What?!




That's maybe the nastiest thing I've seen outside of the Vince Carter Olympic dunk.




He didn't just throw it in, a la Dwight or even himself. His hand grabbed the rim! He decided to keep rising more than halfway into his jump. What?!

He didn't even dunk the ball though.. his fingers might have grazed the rim. It's always much better to see someone rattle the rim.

well clean dunk or not. this is something Blake Griffin needed. Now that he finally dunk on a formidale center. He can slam against other well known centers or bang on Perkins again and own like VC owned Alonzo Mourning.

This.

Although the elevation and the fact that he did it over Perkins was impressive the Dunk itself was not so crazy... he didn't even grab the rim and may not have even touched it.

I dont see why people are going nuts over it.

So you can't watch a replay and clearly see he touches the rim? Why would he have grabbed the rim from the position he was in?

Why are you going so nuts over a guy doing a normal alley oop over a guy 5'11 and backing back not affecting an alley oop because the guy went over him while he was also kinda ducking. Anyone can nitpick like you do and be a wanker...

Blake Griffin is slowly closing the gap between him and Amare Stoudemaire. Though unlikely, there is still a chance that he can surpass Amare in 2-4 years I guess.
Have you been watching the NBA lately. Griffin is surpassing Amar'e right now as we speak. He's probably going to do it between this or next year. Especially with the way Amar'e is stinking it up right now.

If you can't see how amazing this dunk is I'd say pass me whatever you've got rolled up there...

that was the best dunk I've ever seen, and I've spent HOURS watching highlight footage on youtube (the only guy that comes remotely close is Vince Carter).

It wasn't entirely in-your-face nasty like Shaq throwdowns or Darvin Ham tomahawks, but the leap and the extension was something to behold; cartoon- like even.

Some dunks are more graceful or ferocious or clutch, but Blake over Perkins was definitely the most impressive dunk. If I wanted to prove that humans can defy gravity, I would show people that dunk.
If I was trying to get my date into bed, I'd show her footage of that dunk.
If I was fishing for marlin, I'd use that footage as bait.

Blake Griffin, you are a beast. People moan and groan about his faults, but then he reminds us why he became a household name in the first place. It's not because he averages 20 and 10, it's because he soars in the clouds...

Even i admitted that Blake Griffin had a very awesome dunk, probably the 2nd best dunk ive seen this season, but its my opinion, i think being the first in NBA history to jump over somebody while doing an alleyoop over him... is more special than a dunk we have seen done many times.

That Blake dunk has been done many times before.

He didn't power through anything he just jumped up high enough where he could throw it in without anyone contesting it.
Perkins simply was too slow to contest it in time and was made to look silly.

I've seen Kemp's. It was different. Still super impressive, but different (though, again more entertaining than LeBron's to me). You'll have to be more specific with Amare, but I've never seen Amare do a dunk as impressive as that.

Even then, just because something was more unique, it doesn't make it better or more entertaining. I could do a unique lay up, but that still doesn't make it more entertaining than a dunk in somebody's face.

Blake Griffin is something else man.

Sorry no. Lebron was the best dunk and one of the best dunks in NBA history (for me probably the best ive seen in NBA ever), nobody in NBA history has done the dunk what he just did. Even i admitted that Blake Griffin had a very awesome dunk, probably the 2nd best dunk ive seen this season, but its my opinion, i think being the first in NBA history to jump over somebody while doing an alleyoop over him... is more special than a dunk we have seen done many times.
You're Lebron hatred blinds the f*ck out of YOU.
Seriously why Lebron and Kobe c#nts think their opinions matter, and have to pollute every thread with their sheer stupidity?

You take away the midget being on the floor and Lebron dunk happens at least five times a day...

Why does this thread have to turn into LeBron V Blake or Blake V Kemp or whatever. Everyone has their opinion to what the best dunk they've seen is. That's their opinion. Doesn't make them a f$*&(@ weirdo. How about we all just admire in two freak dunks over two days that we may or may not see again all season.

He jumped from far away.

He got his head way above the rim.

He literally jumped over Lucas.

He grabbed the rim and held it after he dunked.

How was it routine?

Remove Lucas and he doesn't change what he did to do the dunk... Lucas wasn't looking and pretty much tunneled him, if he wasn't so short and leaning down it may have been dangerous, also he had the ball for a fraction of a second, how are you saying alley oops are harder? He didnt have to jump with the ball,he had it for a fraction of a second... I know lots of guys that can alley dunk but can't normal dunk..

This actually made me snicker...

I think LBJ's dunk was better. But 2 great dunks none-the-less. Everyone's impression seems to be different which is cool.

If Blake would have grabbed the rim instead of the patented throw ball in scrape the rim with fingers I would have probably given it to him.

Perkins always sad face made it priceless though.

I like the whole THROWING IT IN. I think that's cooler than a "real dunk" because you have to be really high and usually when it happens you are dunking on someone.

I wanna see a two handed throw-it-in dunk, that'd be ridiculous. It's so much harder to throw the ball in the hoop than it is to dunk it. Dunking you are pretty much guiding it in.

Actually that was decent defense by Perk. He kept Blake from get too close to the basket. However, Blake just kept going up and up and up and managed to throw it down.

The LeBron James dunk and the Blake Griffin slam were both spectacular. Griffin's got more a rise out of me though. I prefer his dunking style in most cases, particularly in this comparison. Facials have happened before, but not like this. I'm not saying no one's done it better. Rather, I'm saying I can't remember someone doing it in this style, and it is a pleasing style. I'm not sure I would have liked it as much if he grabbed the rim. Not grabbing the rim allowed the continuation of his throwing motion and sort of made it look like he was stalled out in the air for a minute.

Is this technically offensive goaltending since he is not holding the ball when his hand hit the rim, and the ball had not gone through yet?

That Blake dunk has been done many times before.

He didn't power through anything he just jumped up high enough where he could throw it in without anyone contesting it.
Perkins simply was too slow to contest it in time and was made to look silly.

He didn't actually push Perkins or move him.

that's the final straw. I'm perplexed. How the hell was Blake's dunk not spectacular or impressive? The sheer amount of posters claiming it's the best dunk they've ever seen should help its case.

Are you watching the same clips I'm watching? The one where Blake Griffin achieves the most spectacular breakthrough in flight since the Wright Brothers? The one where he rises about four feet OVER a 7 foot tall NBA center? I'm sorry you can't appreciate an amazing thing... truly.
I saw the dunk over twelve hours ago and I'm still here posting about it. Awesome dunk.

It was an amazing and awesome dunk I just didn't flip out over it.

The top of his head was at rim level which is pretty high but the rest of the dunk was pretty simple.
Perkins just was too slow to defend it and got posterized badly.

I dont see why you think he is getting up so high though.

On one of the best "Paint protector" big men in the league.

You're Lebron hatred blinds the f*ck out of YOU.

Hoesntly, Lebrons dunk would be way more impressive if Vince hadnt jumped over a 7 footer before.

And dunking on a center with head above rim, staying in the air for a split second, then slamming it with thundering force >>> jumping over a small pg on a alley-oop(easier to get higher) and slamming it lightly

So, if you like real, in-game dunks over MEN, you like Griffin's.

If you like fake ass manufactured shit, jumping over chairs or 5'11" scrubs who aren't even looking, you like 'Bron's.

"I've come to the conclusion that Blake Griffin popped out of NBA Jam and hoped no one would notice. I would not be shocked if when he makes three straight shots the ball were to burst into flames."

Everytime i see one of blakes dunks i just feel i am looking at something super special.

What is this guys hops seriously? I just watched the compilation of MJ's dunks on the nba.com site and i never thought i would say it, it just looks unspectacular compared to this guy. If Jordan had 42 inch hops (some saying upto 48 inch lolol), this guy must be at 45 at least.

Also after watching that MJ vid i feel like a huge majority of the league these days are on some kind of PED but no complaint from me just keeping it real.

There are only two dunkers in the history of the NBA that I think can match this type of dunk intensity and frequency.

1. Vince Carter
2. Shawn Kemp

Blake Griffins was better than Lebrons to me. Not by a long shot but it's close. It really is an opinion rather than fact. Throwing it in from a far distance over a 6'10" almost 280 pound center is difficult. Most players would have that ball bounce off the back iron. Not taking anything away from LB's at all, I guess I prefer "in your face" statement type dunks.

I'm sorry, but anyone who says Lebron's dunk was better is just plain crazy. They were both amazing dunks, but Griffin's is the dunk of the year. Even Lebron thinks so.
Off an alley oop jumps over someone's head still finds a way to keep his balance and throws it down. vs Pick & roll facial dunk on Perkins ... I'll take the the guy who jumps on people's head anyday of my life.
