Blake Griffin Makes Pau Gasol His Son

It's been a while since we had a good 'ol Blake Griffin poster slam on our site here, probably because the Clippers have been amidst a mutiny and weren't really interested in making any highlights. Well last night, the Clippers didn't actually win the game, but Blake Griffin was back at it. Griffin made it clear early that he had something to prove to the Lakers, maybe that he isn't soft or that L.A. is his town(which after the loss is clearly not). Early in the first quarter Blake went up for a put back and absolutely embarrassed Pau Gasol, though it may or may not have been an over-the-back.


Then later in the game Blake did one of his classic pick-and-roll posters by putting his off hand in Pau's face and then just abusing the rim. Unfortunately folks, this play, similar to the dunk on Perkins, was an offensive foul. Griffin clearly pushes off Gasol to get leverage and would not have been able to completely the dunk without him. Yet, I give the refs credit. You cannot call that offensive foul in that situation. Pau basically traded in his man card by not only getting dunked on like a school boy, but also letting himself get thrown down afterward and not even responding to Blake in anyway. Again, while it is an offensive foul, this is a man's league, so when you act like a school boy you get treated like a school boy.


Side note, what's going on here?

Look at the far right. Andrew Bynum is laughing at his own teammate getting absolutely man handled. There are plenty of obvious things wrong with this picture. One thing isn't obvious, Bynum, why are you at the free throw line? You're a defensive center playing defensive, you shouldn't be hanging around the perimeter. You should be down there taking Blake Griffin to the ground before he even gets a chance to put your soft teammate on a poster. Anyways, Andrew Bynum seems to me like one of those guys that just isn't always interested and this is obvious in this picture. The face is priceless though.
