Big Weekend in LA for NBA All Stars

Congratulations to Los Angeles players Blake Griffin and Kobe Bryant, who did a phenomenal job of representing Los Angeles, last weekend during the 2011 NBA All Star Jam Weekend.

Los Angeles Clippers rookie forward Blake Griffin amazed all during this year’s Sprite Slam Dunk Contest, coming away victorious on Saturday night, defeating Wizards’ center JaVale McGee in the finals clinching it by flying over the hood of a Kia Optima with a pass from teammate Baron Davis through the sunroof.
