Joel Anthony's block on Blake Griffin 

Post#1 » by CeCeySay » Fri Jan 13, 2012 4:45 pm

I didn't catch the game, but read on the Miami herald app about JA catching a huge block on Blake, & Blake even falling on the floor after. I've been trying to find a video clip, but can't find one. Was it that good?? Any links? Thanks!

It wasn't a block just a stupid play by griffin and an offensive foul.

Yeah I don't get why that wasn't an offensive foul. He grabbed Joel and moved his arm out of the way. He got away with a similar play in the first half. Are you allowed to do that? If you are, Lebron and Wade need to start doing that.

No your not allowed to do that but offensive players often get away with stuff like that. The funny part was how Blake reacted like it should have been a foul. The guy is super talented but has a really low BBall IQ
