Lob City: Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan Caught Alley-Oops From Their New Point Guards

I’m going to put the over/under of Clippers dunk video posts this season at 2,499. Minutes after DeAndre Jordan dunked on Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum Monday night in a preseason game between the Clippers and Lakers, he took a beautiful alley-oop from Chris Paul and embarrassed Luke Walton. The Showtime Clippers were rolling.

Chauncey Billups threw the ball off the glass to a sprinting Blake Griffin who hung on the rim and got a technical. How quaint. A celebration penalty in the NBA. What are they going to do when Blake or DeAndre decide to Tebow on the rim after a dunk?

In the third quarter, Paul threw a pretty underhanded oop that Jordan put down. Luckily, no Lakers were harmed during the making of that video.

Sure it was the preseason and they were playing in their home building, but there was a different color scheme on the floor than they’re used to. Forget the playoffs – which the Clippers will make for the first time since 2006 – this team is going to be a lot of fun to watch. We already expected that, but it’s a whole other thing to actually see these guys in action.
