Blake Griffin is known for dunking basketballs. He may never have done so as well as he did against Kendrick Perkins on Monday night. Video and more after the jump.

Griffin receives the perfect bounce pass from Chris Paul and proceeds to jump about four feet in the air and slam the ball home thunderously at full extension. If that slow-motion video via CBS Sports' Eye on Basketball isn't convincing enough for you, watch it in real-time:
And, of course, the GIF from Mocksession:
That's a dunk so good that even LeBron James — who, you may recall, jumped over a human being to finish an alley-oop on Sunday, not that John Lucas III could do anything about it — is admitting defeat.
Dunk of the Year!! @blakegriffin just dunked on Kendrick Perkins so hard!! Wow!! I guess I'm #2 now. Move over #6

But the broadcaster calling the dunk "Some play" is like when Wilbur was dismissed as "Some pig" in Charlotte's Web, right?
