P.J. Tucker Ejected For Punching Blake Griffin
Blake Griffin had a dominant 37-point performance in LA's 112-105 win over the Suns, shooting 14-16 from the field, but midway through the fourth quarter he and P.J.

Clippers Refuse To Deny That Blake Griffin Beat Up Justin Bieber
Earlier this week, writers and editors across the United States became aware of a dumb story about Blake Griffin beating up Justin Bieber in a Hollywood Starbucks.

Clippers Throttling 76ers; Here's An Example Of Their Brutal Nature
It's halftime at Staples Center, where the Clippers are having their way with the 76ers 69-30. It could be worse; they were up 52-15 early in the second quarter.

Blake Griffin Did That Thing He Does All Over Poor Kris Humphries
Listen, Kris Humphries, if you don't know by now that standing in Blake Griffin's way is only going to get you a face full of elbow or balls followed by an emasculating stare down, then I don't know what to tell you. Just stay out of the way, man! ...
The Clippers Will Fight You, And Beat You
Another big test, and another big win for the Pacific-leading Clippers, a sometimes-sloppy, occasionally chippy, high-energy 111-103 slugfest over the Thunder that saw a near-fight between Blake Griffin and Serge Ibaka, with a furious Matt Barnes as the third man in....
Clippers TV Guy To Doc On Blake Griffin Foul Call: No Fuckin' Way
Clippers color man Michael Smith and head coach Doc Rivers shared a moment Monday evening during the LA's 137-118 victory over the Rockets.

Anthony Bennett Explains His Meteoric Rise: "I'm A Great Guy"
A news conference starring a 20-year-old is generally doomed to devolve into scripted platitudes unless the 20-year-old in question strays into honesty. Therein, we prod Anthony Bennett into discussing the reasons the Cleveland Cavaliers made him the surprise top pick in this week's NBA Draft. His ...
Are Blake Griffin And Kate Upton Humping?
Hoo boy. This, from E (exclamation point) Online, sounds pretty hump-y to me:...
Donald Sterling All But Says Clippers Players Got Vinny Del Negro Fired
T.J. Simers's ability to antagonize pretty much everyone he covers is legendary. So it's twistedly fitting that he's the only L.A. writer to directly call up Donald Sterling, and get the worst owner in sports to be brutally honest about why Vinny Del Negro had to go....

Hustle & Flow-themed trash talk? Hustle & Flow-themed trash talk....
Blake Griffin Decides Finger Rolls Are Stupid, Throws Down Dunk
This play is impressive enough at full speed, thanks to Griffin's ability to momentarily transform into Clyde Drexler and go gliding through the sky for a breakaway dunk.

Without Carmelo Anthony, Amar'e Stoudemire, and especially Tyson Chandler, you knew this one was going to be ugly for the Knicks down low.

Jamal Crawford Goes Between-The-Legs To Set Up Blake Griffin Windmill Alley-Oop
Just watch it. I could describe it for you, put it in context and all the usual jazz, but that would be time spent not watching a between-the-legs, windmill alley-oop. Why would you want to waste your time like that?...
OKC Thunder Forward Serge Ibaka Just Karate Chopped Blake Griffin In The Nuts
C’mon, son. Somehow, Ibaka was only charged with a flagrant 1 foul and didn’t get ejected, and he actually converted a huge three-point play and block down the stretch to help the Thunder fight off a late surge from the LA Clippers, 108-104. It remains to be seen whether he’ll get fined or suspended...

Blake Griffin Switches Hands Mid-Dunk
This is reminiscent of (but not nearly as pretty as) Michael Jordan switching hands in Game 2 of the 1991 Finals against the Lakers. It's not as fluid and obvious as Jordan, but that same hesitation is there and, anyway, Griffin's game has never been about pretty. It's about power and this is what...
