"It's the media misleading the stats like that, which pisses me off": Blake Griffin clears the air about him not wanting to dunk with the Pistons

The Brooklyn Nets broke their voodoo against the Wizards last night, winning their game 113-106. Blake Griffin had the highlight of the game.

It’s been a long, long time since the former Clippers star dunked in an NBA game. As a matter of fact, it’s been a full year and 3 months since he did this. We’ve all been hoodwinked into believing that the 32-year-old is apparently washed.

As usual, there were detractors as with every such case.

Griffin only had 2 points in this win by the Nets. But it’s clear that he still has some dynamite left in his arsenal.
