Eric Gordon Dunks, Makes Case For You to Order League Pass Right Now

I only watched like 10 minutes of the Clippers-Spurs game (on League Pass), and I saw this:



I surely wouldn't have missed this dunk—a sadistic throwdown that was surely catalogued instantly by every one of NBA TV's video interns for inclusion on year-end highlight packages—even if I hadn't seen it live. But a dunk that registers this high on the Richter scale is the best argument there is against an anti-NBA stance like, "Only the fourth quarter matters" or, "The season's too long, only the playoffs matter." This dunk screams for people to pay attention early and often. Watching something this monstrous happen during the flow of game play, instead of on "SportsCenter," is as rewarding as watching one of those street artists use spray paint and a paper towel to create mayhem on canvas.

Also of equal import: Forget finding a nickname for Blake Griffin or Eric Gordon. This whole Clippers team needs its own thoughtful moniker first.
