Another game, another set of monster dunks by Blake Griffin. Maybe his best?

A hotly-anticipated game between L.A.’s Lakers and Clippers had barely gotten started last night when Griffin wowed the Staples Center crowd – and everyone else on Twitter – with a high-flying putback slam over Lakers power forward Pau Gasol.

It’s as if he knew Randy Foye’s three was going to brick right toward him …

The dunk lifted everyone on the Clippers bench out of their seats and sent Gasol crashing down beneath the basket. “Poor Pau,” the announcer said.

It got better/worse. With the Clippers struggling to keep pace in the third quarter, Griffin threw down another epic dunk … again over Gasol. Watch:

Do either of both of these make our Top 10 NBA dunks list? Pretty close.

Fortunately for Pau, the Lakers went on to win 113-108 to move two and a half games ahead of the Clippers. He still may end up on 1-2 posters.
