COT DAMN.

Listen, even if the shortened NBA season turns into an exercise in anarchy over the next few months, mornings like this are why it’s great to have basketball back in our lives. Where you pore over different angles of the same dunk, re-watch the video, and then do it all over again. This also gives us an important opportunity to talk about DeAndre Jordan this morning.

But first, the video.

Anytime you can dunk over the two best big man on the other team--at the same time--it’s a good day.

You can see an alternate angle of the poster here, but all this offers a good reminder about DeAndre Jordan. He may not be “dominant” or even “very good” on his own, but next to Blake Griffin and with Chris Paul feeding him and creating space on drives, DeAndre Jordan is f***ing murderous. So as much as we talk about CP3 and Blake Griffin, if the whole word decides to watch the Clippers this year, more often than not, we’re going to come away talking about DeAndre Jordan.

Monday was the just beginning.
