Clippers vs Sixers

Griffin going down hill

Blake was a just a frustrated birthday boy that wanted a good a game, he forced it. Better team won tonight. Good luck Clip fans, Lakers should only have a few years left at the top.

LOL Philly fans coming in to talk trash after the game is over. Wouldn't expect anything less.

Not here to talk trash, bro...but why the f would Battie try to grab Griffin's jersey as he was falling other than to keep the guy from hitting the ground hard?

Also - does Battie even get tangled up with Griffin if Blake doesn't throw his arms out after Meeks clipped him in the face?

You must have the Sixers confused with another team if you think we' re a bunch of goons. If anything, I wish they showed MORE sack when teams get up in their grill. I can certainly understand Griffin's frustration with getting beaten on...and he better get used to it. Teams are going to treat him the way they treat Howard - especially when you have a lower FG% from the line than from the floor. On many levels, it sucks...but they've been doing it since the days of Wilt (probably even goes back to George Mikan, for that matter). The good thing for you guys is that you have a player like that - I wish the Sixers had a guy who got hacked all the time because teams couldn't stop him any other way.

Good luck the rest of the season.

That wasn't a flagrant, Blake Griffin just overreacted. Battie was just trying to hold him.

I think the beast inside Griffin lost control since it was kind of hard for Griffin to see what's going on when he got poked in the face and had his eyes closed. Battie didn't mean no harm, but he just held on a little too long on Blake's jersey. It was nice to see the other Clips come to his aid though.
