Im not, but a lot of people love it. Its athletic for sure but it doesnt satisfy my Bill Walton like need for THROWING IT DOWN

I think LeBron's flight over Lucas was way better

I think the object of humiliation in each case should factor in. Lucas doesnt even belong in the league, while Perkins makes his bones being a defensive post presence. I agree that true dunks are better than the extension ones though.

I think the outcome would have been much different if Perkins wasn't held down to the ground by Griffin's hand. Ya know, if he was given the ability to actually jump on the play....

I could see Griffin as a villian

Me too.

Griffin's dunk was more violent. Lebron's was more athletic.

"Dunk of the Year! @blakegriffin just dunked on Kendrick Perkins so hard!!! Wow! I guess I'm No. 2 now. Move over #6," James tweeted, apparently referring to his own dunk the day before over Chicago Bulls point guard John Lucas III being relegated behind Griffin's poster-quality jam.

Perkins told Yahoo! Sports that he didn't appreciate that.

"You don't see Kobe (Bryant) tweeting," Perkins said, according to the report. "You don't see Michael Jordan tweeting. If you're an elite player, plays like that don't excite you.

"At the end of the day, the guys who are playing for the right reasons who are trying to win championships are not worrying about one play. They also are not tweeting about themselves talking about going down to No. 2," Perkins added, according to the report. "I just feel [James] is always looking for attention and he wants the world to like him."

C'mon though, by the point Blake's hand touched Perk's head it was already too late for poor Perk.

Shoutout Kendrick Perkins. Next time they play the Heat I hope he tosses Lebron into the fifth row.
