PHOENIX – It could’ve been Blake Griffin’s early alley-oop finish, or one of a handful of other dunks, or any of his 10 made baskets on 14 shot attempts that left the most lasting impression Wednesday night for head coach Doc Rivers, but it wasn’t any of those.
It could’ve been the flashy between-the-legs pass that somehow found a cutting J.J. Redick for a reverse layup in the first quarter, but it wasn’t that one, either.
Rivers’ favorite play from Griffin didn’t end in any of his 29 points, nor was it a gaudy or athletic display.
