POTD 5/10/12: Devin Ebanks Gets Mozgov’d… By Timofey Mozgov
The best thing about Thursday night’s Nuggets game? Denver forced the series back to LA. The second-best thing? Had to be Ty Lawson’s 32-point explosion. After that, though, has to come Timofey Mozgov’s shockingly-awesome, two-handed rim rocker on top of Devin Ebanks. Talk about a surprising slam—this was like the mother of all sneaky dunks…...

Video: Griffin dunks over three Nuggets
Blake Griffin did it again on Wednesday night. In the above video all the Griffin did was dunk on no fewer than three members of the Denver Nuggets.
Included in that group was Timofey Mozgov, who is no stranger to being posterized by Griffin. In fact, we’d bet heavily that Mozgov is probably still having nightmares about Griffin on a nightly basis.
The best part...

POTD 2/15/12: Derrick Williams Mozgovs DJ White
My favorite thing about this dunk is that one of the Minnesota commentators actually used the term “Mozgov’d” to describe what happened on a play that didn’t involve Blake Griffin or Timofey Mozgov. I think that officially makes Mozgov a verb, right? I don’t know exactly how the whole get-a-new-word-into-the-dictionary process works, but I think...

Mozgov refuses to be Griffin's poster child
LOS ANGELES The NBA DictionaryMain Street edition went back to rewrite Thursday night when the term Mozgov'd (verb; to be used as a poster prop, or otherwise humiliated, on a signature Blake Griffin, or likewise thunderous, dunk) got, well, Mozgov'd.
When this entry was made a year ago, a poor unsuspecting Russian rookie, Timofey Mozgov, was used as a 7-foot-1 launching...

Blake Griffin dunk: “It’s better than a Mozgov!”
Before Timofey Mozgov became the Nuggets starting center this season, he was best known for being dunk upon/over by Blake Griffin, back when Timofey played for the Knicks. Well, on Monday night, the Clippers’ Griffin unleashed a similar dunk on a similarly sized center – Kendrick Perkins of the Thunder (video below).
As the broadcasters lost their minds, here was their debate...

Blake Griffin Just Had The Greatest Dunk Of All Time
Blake Griffin has thrown down some pretty monstrous dunks in his short NBA career. There were these two amazing jams against the Knicks last year including permanently putting Timofey Mozgov on a poster. There was this steal and reverse dunk against the Pistons. There was this 360 in the Slam Dunk contest and he even dunked over a car. There were over 200 more from his rookie...
