Once his feet returned to the court, Griffin felt a powerful set of arms wrap around his body, taking his breath away. It was Clippers center DeAndre Jordan congratulating his teammate on a play which the NBA TV announce team called, simply, "a monster jam."<br /><br />Also singing Griffin's praises was Lebron James of the Miami Heat, who was awarded "top play" status by ESPN's SportsCenter just a few hours earlier for his impressive dunk in a game against Chicago on Sunday. "King James" took to Twitter just after midnight Tuesday to concede defeat, stating, "Wow! I guess I'm #2 now."
