Blake Griffin Passes On Dunk Contest, Shatters Fans’ Dreams Of Dunk Over Spaceship

by Glenn Davis | 10:39 am, February 3rd, 2012

Perhaps you were wondering: after the car dunk of 2011, what would Blake Griffin jump over at the dunk contest this year? An SUV? Two sedans stacked on top of one another? Fighter jet? 747? Aircraft carrier? Kendrick Perkins? Well, actually, no one at all – he’s not doing the dunk contest this year. Why not? Well, according to him, “Last year was hectic and it kind of made [All-Star weekend] unenjoyable.” Man, first he regrets “Lob City,” and now he doesn’t really like the dunk contest? How many more dreams can he ruin?! (Photo via)
