Neither are fouls. Both are within the no charge zone.

except for the fact he pushes Gasols shouler down to help himself launch even higher.. not that he needed too
great vision, amazing athletic ability

Is throwing your forearm into a defenders face a foul? I don't know the exact rule, but I'd think it would be.

Second one is a definite foul on Griffin, offensive fend off. Its obvious. BUT being the NBA, if the Reign man can take 3 steps to throw down in the 90's, why not let Griffin do his thing through a defender in the 2010's?

Kemp was cool though, to me Griffin seems to be a bit of a punk.

In the second video, if you look who first made illegal contact, it was Gasol. He puts his arms straight out hitting Griffin, which in my opinion, forces blake to use his arm.
Regardless of who made the contact, the NBA is an entertainment league, where is the entertainment if they call a foul on Blake?

Much better dunks then Griffin's ring tap throw in dunk that everyone went crazy about.

Yes I am sure Alton Lister thought he was cool :)

Kemp was way cooler, Griffin will give us plenty of highlights over the next 5 years

Neither dunks are fouls, there are countless nba dunks on youtube that are so similar, especially to the first one, have to be consistent (what happens when you don't box out Gasol). On the 2nd one the forearm is nulled because Gasol jumps from the no-charge line and forward(thus out of his cylinder) into Griffin's body after he's already left the ground, making it an instant Gasol foul.
