Kobe Bryant scored 27 points, Kevin Durant had 36 points and Blake Griffin's interception of a pass secured the West's 152-149 win on Sunday night.
It's always uncomfortable -- if not downright ignorant -- to agree with blowhard Stephen A. Smith. But I'm with him on this: What the Clippers' Blake Griffin performed Monday night was: Epic. Jaw-dropping. Unprecedented. But, um, sorry, it wasn't a dunk.
