Blake Griffin misses wide-open dunk, totally stinks at dunking now (VIDEO) (Ball Don’t Lie)

Would you believe me if I told you that Blake Griffin missed what The Associated Press' Jon Krawczynski called a "wide-open, uncontested dunk" in the first quarter of the Los Angeles Clippers' matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves on Thursday night? Of course you wouldn't. "Blake Griffin dunks on everyone all the time, and he is at the very top of the latest Dunk-O-Meter readings , which is science," you'd say. "Boy, I wish you'd quit being such a dumb liar, Dan." Hey, man, take it easy, OK? Don't get so bent out of shape about this. Besides, I'm not lying — I can prove it, thanks to our friends at the Yahoo! Sports Minute . Behold: Don't beat yourself up about it, Blake. I mean, if there's anything we can all relate to, it's the feeling of soaring through the air like a majestic eagle in front of thousands of people, trying to decide whether to effortlessly dunk a basketball with one hand or effortlessly dunk a basketball with two hands, and getting kind of caught up in the middle. It's a tale as old as time and a song as old as rhyme.
