VIDEO: Griffin and Jordan hook up for pair of beautiful alley-oops

Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan have a beautiful relationship.

Together, they're one of the most feared frontcourt duos in all of basketball. Griffin is the scorer, Jordan the rebounder and both defend in complementary ways. Together, they have the Los Angeles Clippers at 22-11, combining for 32.1 points and 21.6 rebounds a night.

Oh, and Griffin can pass better than maybe any other big man in the league and Jordan can finish better than just about anyone, any size, anywhere. That was on full display Wednesday against the New York Knicks, with the duo hooking up for a pair of terrific alley-oops.

First, there was the simpler second-quarter hook-up, with Griffin tossing a pass to a diving Jordan off of a screen-and-roll.

Given how easy that one was, Griffin and Jordan upped the difficulty in the third quarter, with Griffin tossing a one-handed pass to Jordan for an emphatic one-handed jam.

Blake w/ the alley. DJ w/ the oop.

Lob City is real.
