Remember when we were talking about Blake Griffin dunking over a car in the Slam Dunk Contest tonight? Well, Blake Griffin dunked over a car in the Slam Dunk Contest tonight, and it was as insane as you might have assumed.
VIDEO: Blake Griffin Dunks Over A KIA
Griffin’s dunk itself isn’t quite legendary, but dunking after leaping over the hood of a car while grabbing an alley-oop pass from Baron Davis through the car’s sunroof while a gospel choir sang “I Believe I Can Fly” behind him is a moment that will go down as one of the best in Slam Dunk Contest history.
The car Griffin skied over to throw down what will be known forever as “The Blake Griffin Car Dunk” and “The Time The Internet Ran Out Of Exclamation Points” and “The Best Video Game Dunk Ever” is a KIA Optima. (KIA is the title sponsor of Sunday’s NBA All-Star Game.)
Blake Griffin will be in that, too. It’s hard to imagine that he’ll jump over a car in an All-Star Game, but, hey, I’m not prepared to rule out anything humanity hasn’t done as a future Griffin exploit.
