Griffin should've got a flagrant foul for fouling Morris like that. That's how you **** up your knee.

[QUOTE=thatoneblackguy]No, I mean Blake Griffin, the guy that pushed the rookie when he was dunking the ball[/QUOTE]
Why was he dunking after the whistle?
Seems like all the whiners are channelling their inner Andre Millers. :oldlol:

I don't know, why don't you ask him? What kinda stupid question is that? :oldlol:
[QUOTE=TheCalmInsanity]It's not attacking.. There was no aggression. He just put his hands out, seemed like he wanted to help Morris regain composure or balance (but probably way underestimated the speed Morris had).
Didn't seem malicious at all.. Mike Brown just overreacted like a kid took away his chicken mcnuggets and everyone blew it out of proportion afterwards[/QUOTE]
Fair enough. Agree to disagree. :cheers:
Griffin's not a dirty player or anything like that, he's just careless. He reminds me of Bynum. He doesn't realize how big and strong he is and he does stuff like this and it gets magnified.

Unnecessary actions require unnecessary measures. If you play after the whistle, you do it at your own peril.

And that's where this discussion is over, if you believe it's okay for a player to be injured for playing after the whistle then I don't have anything else to say to you.

But he wasn't injured. There wasn't even a follow through, hell it wasn't even malicious. Morris put himself in that situation, not Blake.
You're trying to justify your player's stupidity by calling out Griffin for doing what Garnett's done for ages. Griffin isn't a dirty player in any sense of word. This thread is just fuel for the 12 people here that despise Blake for no good reason.
Blake is the next KG, and I don't mean that in a good way. I mean he only picks on 6'3 players and flops against everyone else. On second thought, I'll take that back, at least KG plays real defense and doesn't flop. :oldlol:
[QUOTE=DuMa]as for the thread. Blake is a very physical player. great motor and loves playing chippy. Its nothing towards any kinds of players, he just wants to box out and be in position for the rebound every chance he gets. Blake is old school. He just plays with contact.

You are completely missing the point. Placing your hands on a person's mid section to lower body while they're going for a dunk is not defending. No matter how you try to defend your precious star, that is not a defensive play.
Blake seems like he's a douche IRL, I hate that smug grin he always wears.
Facially challenged MF.
[QUOTE=TheCalmInsanity]You mean the idiot rookie who was flying towards Blake Griffin after the whistle for no reason with an unnecessary dunk?[/QUOTE]
So what's wrong with just catching the player dunking or how about just moving out of the way? It's obvious the guy can complete the dunk, no need to interfere with it. No point responding to one idiotic play with another one.
I like how Andre Miller handled it, also liked that Mike Brown got very upset about the stupid push on Morris, only thing missing was some real Laker retaliation.
Griffin needs to be told to cut his shit in order to keep him in check, like the way Miller did it, same with Odom last year who had to tell Griffin to cut the stupid shit, Griffin immediately backed off then too.
[QUOTE=thatoneblackguy]I'm looking at it the same way I'm looking at Bynum elbowing JJ Barea in the air, of course Blake's wasn't as severe because no elbows were involved but it has the same principle. Attacking the lower to mid section of someone's body while they're in the air is [B][COLOR="Red"]never[/COLOR][/B] a good idea nor is it a defensive play.[/QUOTE]
This is some hilarious shit you guys are crying about. Blake has been maliciously cheapshotted at least 20 times so far in his very short career yet he's a punk in the eyes of haters? Players always hit him as retaliation for what they feel is showboating. He did give Morris a little shove but he clearly wasnt trying to hurt him or be malicious. He's been on the receiving end of much worse.
I love seeing people cry like little bitches after every Clippers victory and criticizing the team or players in such petty ways. It's the Clipper era now so you haters better get used to it and suck it up.

So what would you say if every time Griffin attempts a dunk(which is atleast 6 times a game) the opposing team fouls him while in the air?
The more I watch Blake Griffin the less respect I have for him.
He doesn't care though. I guess that's one good thing for him.
The pushing he did to Andre when Andre boxed out is that legal or would that be a foul? I hate playing guys who just shoves and pushes you from behind when you have them boxed out.
The more I watch Blake Griffin the more I like him.
Hopefully he pisses off everyone in the NBA. :oldlol:

so, the fact that griffin has been cheap-shotted gives him the right to push a guy in the mid section, in mid-air?

this is probably true
but his carelessness could have really ****ed up darius morris.
both guys are pretty lucky that neither of them got seriously injured.
What Griffin did was dirty and his sense of entitlement is such a letdown from some of those commercials :(

As someone who was openly critical of that Bynum elbow to Barea, I figured you'd agree somewhat on this, even if it wasn't nearly as bad.
Yeah, Blake's received some cheapshots, but that's not an excuse to start randomly shoving smaller players for no reason. It makes him look like a dick. You're fine with it, but others aren't. Not everyone criticizing Blake has a hidden anti-Blake agenda, or is "crying like little bitches." Sometimes a player just starts doing shit that rubs some fans the wrong way.

I just hope he tries this on a big guy with a short temper.

I love the logic that he only plays defense after the whistle. Oh the irony...

Blake hustles and is strong. He doesn't go around targeting small point guards. When he hustles and a small guy is in the way it's just more obvious.

It has nothing to do with the Clippers or Blake Griffin. It's the fact that fouls like that could potentially end someone's career. Look at how Morris landed. He could've easily tore something in his knee, and since he's not exactly a known prospect, that could've ended his career. Griffin just has to realize he can't do that kind of stuff and get away with it. Like I said before, I seriously doubt he did any of it with malicious intent. He doesn't seem like that type of person or player.
And :oldlol: @ the Clippers era. You guys haven't done anything to establish yourselves. Let's talk once you guys win a championship or two.
[QUOTE=Dictator]Hustling is pushing a guy after the whistle?[/QUOTE]
No, but that's just one incident.
in the other video, if Andre Miller can't handle being in the paint with the big guys he shouldn't go there and then act like a bitch because he got a shove going for a board.

Tackling a guy because you're mad you got a little shove in the paint trying to grab boards with the big guys. Can't handle it? Don't go there.
If anything, that showed insecurity on Andre Miller's part.

Oh, boy. You clearly missed last season how many guys got pissed at Blake's hustle. The guy goes hard.
It must be quite annoying to hustle against him for a ball when he has pogo sticks for legs.
'Dre shit was GOLD. Blake Griffin roughing up the little fella's than Dre puts him on his ass. Blake didn't shove him again :oldlol:
Metta shouldn't get any playing time so he should be the one to teach griffin a lesson. Like barnes did mavs assistant coach and terry. :roll:

I beg to differ. The OP as well as the tards judging him are trying to spin it as if Blake Griffin is a bully and only goes after smaller players, hence the KG comparisons in this thread. Which is a complete load of sh**. Griffin has gotten into it with tons of players including other bigs and league "tough guys" like Leon Powe for example.
This isn't a case of Griffin being a dick and wanting to bully the little guy which is the angle OP is pushing. This is a case of Griffin playing with a fire and recklessness. I'm not saying this is a cool move because I think it's unnecessary. I'm saying it's not worth making a stupid thread with a clear agenda to slander a player.
BTW the Bynum elbow was SO much worse in severity. He was literally trucked mid air so hard that it looked like he could have broken ribs. Griffin gave a shove... nowhere near hard enough to injury Morris who was already gripping the rim hanging.
