Re: Problem w/ Blake Griffin shoving smaller Point Guards
[QUOTE=Clippersfan86]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.
[/QUOTE]
so, the fact that griffin has been cheap-shotted gives him the right to push a guy in the mid section, in mid-air?
[QUOTE=LA_Showtime]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.[/QUOTE]
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.
Re: Problem w/ Blake Griffin shoving smaller Point Guards
What Griffin did was dirty and his sense of entitlement is such a letdown from some of those commercials :(

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.[/QUOTE]
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.

Those Kia ads will never stop being awesome.
Re: Problem w/ Blake Griffin shoving smaller Point Guards
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...
Re: Problem w/ Blake Griffin shoving smaller Point Guards
lol
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.

Hustling is pushing a guy after the whistle?

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.

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.
Re: Problem w/ Blake Griffin shoving smaller Point Guards
'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:
