VIDEO: Chris Paul returns, feeds Blake Griffin for monstrous dunk

Blake Griffin and Chris Paul were happily reunited on Friday night for the first time since teaming up to topple the San Antonio Spurs in Game 7 of the first round all those eons ago.

In the first quarter of Game 3 against the Houston Rockets, the Clippers' terrifying tandem worked a perfectly simple, perfectly effective pick-and-roll, perfectly.

Griffin slipped the screen, Rockets swingman Trevor Ariza got hung up, Dwight Howard slid over to help, Paul hit Griffin with a pocket pass in stride and Griffin handled the rest.
