Has this guy done anything besides dunk and shoot layups?  I've never seen it.  Of course I only see the highlights so I'm not sure if he can do anything else.

If you watch the play by play of their last win in Chicago, or any full game, you would easily see that he's not just a dunker - He already has a very diversified offensive game. He has a pretty decent midrange game, some very nice post/spin moves, can lead a fast break, is an excellent passer and is a very good rebounder.

I think that, first and foremost, rookie mistakes and injuries have hurt the Clippers this year. They've also had one of the most difficult schedules to start. You should see their record slowly rise as their schedule eases up.

And if you'll look at the guy in all black on the right, you'll see he's about to have a heart attack.

You are missing out if you aren't watching him.

He has post moves, can handle the ball and pass, and is an excellent rebounder. A sure-fire perennial all-star.

Not surprising that the lest exciting plays aren't showing up in highlights. Even KG's highlights are dominated with alley-oops though the jumper is his staple move on offense.

Good call on Kemp his play reminds me of him too.  I have to say though that I can't think of anyone who dunks with quite his reckless abandon.  And I've never seen anyone jump higher more quickly than Blake.

They are all amazing but if you watch #5 he gets off the ground so quickly off a little drop step... I would say it isn't possible but I'm watching it happen.

Man, they can't update his top 10 fast enough. Seemingly every game he throws down an even more impressive dunk than the previous.

What on Earth is his vertical? According to his combine it was "only" 37-inches, but I bet he can quite a few inches higher by the looks of it.


Wow, how great would the Slam Dunk Contest be with him AND LeBron (looking for some good PR.... but I know it won't happen because he is a coward)... AND Nate.

i still say, this is the team lebron should have gone to.  he would have been the new king of la la land.

It would of been cool in a way but you can't blame him for not wanting to play for Donald Sterling and Vinny Del Negro, even if they have promising young guns like Griffin, Gordon, Jordan, and Bledsoe.  I will say that Griffin, Jordan, and LeBron would be quite the dunking trio.
