J.J. Hickson Monster Block on Blake Griffin Helps Cavs Break Streak (Video)

February 12, 2011 by Steve DelVecchio • Comments

The streak is over.  The Cleveland Cavaliers either caught a team on an off night or finally grew some balls.  I’m sure they don’t care how it happened, but the Cavs beat Blake Griffin and the Clippers on Friday night.  I wonder if LeBron still thinks Sunday’s Cavs-Wizards game should be nationally televised?

The real question is whether or not Griffin was able to get any sleep last night.  Has the current king of the NBA dunking world ever had a dunk rejected, let alone at a crucial point in the game?  He has now.  Check out the video of J.J. Hickson stuffing a Blake Griffin dunk:

Hickson had another huge block with the game tied 110-110 to force overtime, where the Cavs were finally able to get it done.  As sad as it sounds, this can probably go down as the most important win of his young career.
