Blake Griffin's actions last night was inexcusable

This in no slight to his game, which I know some of you idiots will take this thread for, but never should a rook come hard like that on the court. Any other rookie would have gotten murked for acting the same way.

I know alot of you are so far up Griffin's a-hole that you'll stick up for him, but what if that was Empke Udoh or Evan Turner? You'd probably think he was a douche for pulling the same thing. Rooks should have more class. Have a few more miles in the league before you try and pick fights on the court.

You mad Heat fan?

What happened?

video or it didnt happen

[QUOTE=Naruto-sama]What happened?[/QUOTE]


Highlights are probably still fresh so watch a sports channel and see if you can catch it. Griffin was trying to go after Chalmers last night

any OTHER rookie. not blake superior. of course we'd all be like, wtf if someone like udoh did that- he hasn't done s[COLOR="Black"]h[/COLOR]it in the league. griffin, on the other hand..

This thread needs a Cam'Ron "You Mad?" pic fast.

Things got heated, "Poster Child" stood up for himself and then dunked in Chalmers eye. End of story.

I do not believe a rookie should be restricted from partaking in any action on the basketball court. If his argument was incorrect then I believe it would be incorrect for anyone, not just rookies. I do not believe in having to have a certain number of years experience in order to get into a scuffle on the hardwood.

Inexcusable for what?

That game was pretty intense and emotions sometimes take over whether or not you're a rookie especially when it's someone like Griffin. Good for Clippers fans because he plays better mad anyway.

Dude has plenty of class and it's not like he's a basket case...you don't remember the Andre Miller incident? He got up, shook it off and continued to play.

Excatly.

Same guys that would stick up for this would be because it's Griffin, any other rook....

You haven't played sports then. You would take being pushed around by a frosh the same way as a senior?

I doubt it.

NBA needs more emotions in the game. That is passion idk if u notice but good players usually go into god mode when they are pissed.

Exactly...

What the OP is basically saying that as a Rookie you have no right to defend yourself on the court. I don't believe that to be true...

If the Freshman/Sophomore is twice my size and has double my skills I might...

You can make this thread if he does it to Shaq, Kobe or Nash.

But Mario fkin' Chalmers? Lol they're in the same league as far as seniority goes and can go at it.

If you can back it up it's all fair game. Why is Chalmers the one involved anyway?

A 6'10 250 lb beast of a frosh...maybe.

Passion? yes. Playing it off but getting more physical? Go for it. Acting hard and going after a player as a rookie? Tacky.

I don't get it. You ISH posters are flip floppers. Even though he's not a rookie, that Nate Robinson scene where he chases Melo around he's seen as a chump. Replace that same scene with Blake and it's passion and emotion. Hell I bet if you replaced Blake with Melo in that scene it turns from running scared to intellegently defending himself.

Here is the thing even now if Shaq were to pick a fight and Blake tried to dunk on him , he would lay him out. Kobe would be so far ahead in the game so he wouldn't care. And Nash has fully accepted hes going to be on a sub 50% team. Would never happen. Mario Chalmers= LOL.

OP is an idiot.

Yes. That is precisely my point. As a sophomore on varsity I would treat the opponent the same way regardless of age or grade. If I felt I had to be a jerk, I'd be a jerk. Conversely, as a senior, if a player was being a jerk to me, it didn't make a difference whether they were in my grade or a freshman or sophomore. With all due respect, as you're certainly not alone in this feeling, I never understood why upperclassmen felt they were somehow on a different level than others because they happened to be born a few years earlier. I do not believe in bowing down to others based on age.

the only thing i see wrong with that is griffin i way bigger than chalmers. if it was someones griffins size than i would see nothing wrong with it.

[QUOTE=StacksOnDeck]OP is an idiot.[/QUOTE]

For having an opinion on somebody's behavior? Oh I forgot, it's Blake Griffin so I can't talk negative about him.

Sorry, but there is no validation to your post. You on the other hand call out somebody with an opinion which is against the norm an idiot makes you the idiot. Think about it.

Posters like this yahoo is the reason why good posters disappear

what's wrong with having a little intensity in a game?! i like players who play with a little chip, only problem i have is he went at the smallest guy on MIA... btw, chalmers wet his pants after the griff two hander! :lol

I believe in sticking up for yourself, I don' think Blake should get a free pass in this situation when if it were nay other rookie, it's inexcusable.

But even going back to regular sports, I do believe in sticking up for yourself, but for a rookie, or evena freshman, there is still a level on respect and class you should show on the court, this holds higher once you reach a more professional level. Play harder sure, but when you're a newb, regress.

Cmon man its Charlmers. Blake should gave taken a sh!t on his head while he was dunking on him. And I am not even a Blake fan.

WTF? Griffin stood up like a man, who cares if hes a rookie, besides, hes got his game to back it up, unlike others.

Fair enough. I definitely agree with showing respect on the court, but I feel that is true regardless of age and experience. I suppose that is where we differ.

This is getting a little frustrating, but here's the point:

Who gives a fucc if it's Chalmers and Blake or Shaq and Turner, or Udoh and Duncan? This is about a rookie's behavior. most of you are automatically jumping to the aid of Griffin.

If this was Udoh last night going after Wade i'm sure the tune would have totally changed and the posts in the thread would have been entirely different. Udoh would have been chastized for this.

hmm maybe the op IS Mario Chalmers? :oldlol:

I dont know how old you are dude, but in the real world, the adult world...No one is going to tuck tail and turn the other cheek in a situation like that.


An adult male has EVERY right to defend himself in these situations. "Rookie" or not.

videos you mfckers... didnt see shit.

You can afford a computer but not a television? It's all over the news.

It's all for our entertainment so just enjoy it.

Griffen showed emotion and you get ticked. It is basketball, if there isn't emotion then what fun is it? If you have ever played and you get disrespected in one way or another you let it be known where you stand. He isn't going to cower down and back off just because he is a rookie. If you are a new to a local park are you going to back down when things get intense? I doubt it, atleast not around here people don't.

I agree with you on half of your point... If Blake was going after Wade or Duncan or Shaq, it would be a little different. If Udoh or Turner went after Mario Chalmers also, I don't think anyone would care at all. In your hypothetical situations listed, they're totally different, with a rookie going after a seasoned vet. In this instance it was a rookie going after a 3rd year player who isn't that good... totally different imo.
