All things Blake Griffin thread Rookie Year edition

Re: Blake Griffin vs Suns

This game has become really physical, amazing coming from a Suns team that is more finesse than tough. Very fun to watch down the stretch.

They're pushing Blake around and he's responding. Just had a grown man three point play.

Re: Blake Griffin vs Suns

This game has just became one of the most frustating game evers.

Blake just fouled out and Vinny Del Negro isn't smart enough to figure out that the Suns are hacking DeAndre Jordan in the backcourt (3-10 free throw shooting today).

This is why they're the Clippers.

Re: Blake Griffin vs Suns

Blake finishes with 28 points (8-11 FG, 12-16 FT), 12 rebounds, 4 assists, 6 fouls in 38 minutes.

Clippers up 104-94 with about 2 minutes left.

Re: Blake Griffin vs Suns

After doing their best to choke it away late, a Gordon steal leading to an Aminu dunk seals the 108-103 Clippers win.

Amazingly Clippers have 4 of their last 5.

10-21 on the year.

9-22 Clippers vs 5-22 Sacramento Kings. Kings are lead by that "other" Rookie DeMarcus Cousins, who is averaging 11 pts and 7 rbs a game. Clips have won their last two road games, after losing their first nine.

With a double double tonight Blake ties the rookie record of 19th straight double doubles held by Emeka Okafor (clippers franchise record is also 19, not sure who holds it.)

Re: ***Official Blake "The Terminator" Griffin vs Sacramento Thread***

Blake Griffin has hit another 3, third of his career (5 attempts).

7 points, 3 boards and assist late in the 1st.

Re: ***Official Blake "The Terminator" Griffin vs Sacramento Thread***

Clippers up 28-21 after 1.

Blake with 7 points (3-3 FG, 1-1 3), 4 rebounds and 1 assist

Re: ***Official Blake "The Terminator" Griffin vs Sacramento Thread***

Quote of the night on the Kings feed, color guy sounds like an old coach from the South.

"That was quick, everybody else was squatting and Griffin was flying" in reference to Blake grabbing a board giving it up to Davis, sprinting down the court and getting it back for a dunk.

Late in the 2nd, 10 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists.

Re: ***Official Blake "The Terminator" Griffin vs Sacramento Thread***

Really enjoying this Kings color guy, his drawl makes it even better.

"Thing about Blake Griffin is if you're going to block the ball from him on a lob is it will have to be at 11 and a half feet high"

Blake was going up for an epic lob and Dalembert like a DB called for PI just kind of pushes Blake and never looks for the ball.

Blake logged a lot of minutes in the first half (21) and even though the Clippers turned it over 15 times or so they're up 58-49.

Blake's stats, 12 points (4-6 FG, 3-4 FT, 1-1 3), 7 rebounds, 3 assists in 21 minutes.

Clips up 58-49 at half. Cousins with only 2 points and 6 rebounds on 1 of 6 shooting. Blake has 12 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists...

Re: ***Official Blake "The Terminator" Griffin vs Sacramento Thread***

Cousins is soft and has an attitude problem. I would not want Cousins on my team.

Re: ***Official Blake "The Terminator" Griffin vs Sacramento Thread***

Blake has tied the rookie record of consecutive double doubles with 15 and 10 early the 3rd

 

[Sam]

Re: ***Official Blake "The Terminator" Griffin vs Sacramento Thread***

For Blake through 3
17 points (6-10 FG, 4-6 FT, 1-1 3), 12 rebounds (2 offensive), 4 assists, 5 turnovers.

Tied at 76.

Re: ***Official Blake "The Terminator" Griffin vs Sacramento Thread***

I know Gordon is a good scorer, but EVERY single game I watch that is close late, that dude is just a freaking turnover machine.
So un-clutch.

Re: ***Official Blake "The Terminator" Griffin vs Sacramento Thread***

Gotta say...I'm enjoying the Kings announcers...they really seem to call things down the line...

BTW, Blake is a beast...

Re: ***Official Blake "The Terminator" Griffin vs Sacramento Thread***

Wow.
Clippers just got absolutely screwed.

Kings down 3, Clippers went to foul.

They commit the foul. The whistle is blown. Evans takes another dribble and shoots. They call it a shooting foul.

He misses the third and the Clippers win anyway.

And the Kings almost got the putback on the missed FT to win it.
Cousins had one of the most egregious over the backs ever on Blake to tip the ball, of course not called.

When is Blake going to start getting calls in this league?

That sequence was insane, than Cousins missing the tip and evans missing the 10 footer. Clippers got lucky but I guess it evens out considering the foul call.

Well Blake with a solid
24 points (9-15 FG, 5-7 FT, 1-1 3), 14 rebounds (3 offensive), 4 assists in 40 minutes.

Clippers win 100-99
