    Blake has a habit of getting under people's skin

    Even cool cat Andre Miller took a shot at Blake

    He is an amazing athlete, but seems extremely immature

    Griffin needs to learn how to be a man and take tough fouls from Kobe

    Griffin was crying for a foul before there was even contact per usual

    LOLLLL, this one wasn't as hard, but still compare this to Blake Griffin on the ground dying.

    Smith hits Griffin. "Oh God! Look at Blake the flopper! He should get suspended for flopping! What a p***y! DAMN HIM. GO TO HELL!"

    Smith accidentally hits Lowry/Scola/etc. "Smith is a douche! I hate him! ******* that cheap b*stard. He deserves a career ending injury!"

    Smith hits LeBron...

    Well, you see what I'm getting at.
    If we all looked at this objectively Smith was in the wrong. That was a HARD hit. Maybe staying down on the ground was a little much from Griffin but he got rammed into.

    Most of y'all are just ignoring Smith's lowering of his shoulder just before contact. Come on now.

    Are you serious?!?

    Smith was just ducking because he was about to get dunked on by Blake. Griffin initiated the contact - and then flopped trying to get the foul call.

    Should have been an offensive foul against Griffin.



    Oh ok - fair enough. Smith decked him - but who cares? Griffin carries on like an idiot, and if he's always going to play hurt, then why should we care if someone actually TRIES to hurt him?

    Griffin made his bed, he can lie in it.
    Smith is now a hero.

    That was no worse than this

    Griffin could've probably popped right back up after the Jason Smith hit like the Dre hit but the difference is the Dre hit was from his Rookie year and now he's a seasoned veteran when it comes to flopping and acting. He learned it from Master CP3.

    Nate Robinsons foul against Goran Dragic was much worse and was only a fragment 1

    If griffin doesn't show more respect to other NBA players and teams he should get use to this...

    Thank you for hopefully starting a trend Jason Smith!

    Shoulder to shoulder, no foul.

    Oh I mean in soccer. Man, even an Italian soccer player won't flop in a tackle like this.

    How else can you stop him?

    Give him an iso on the block and watch him trip over his feet. He has no post moves!

    Awesome, I can't stand Blake Griffin. He is so arrogant and disrespectful on the court that he deserves this kind of treatment.

    I don't want to see anyone injured, not even Blake Griffin, but I don't mind him getting laid out and having a little pain. What a douchebag.

    Watch again, this was a fast break. Smith didn't want to get posterized.

    How can it be worse? Fisher ELBOWED Scola. Jason Smith ran to the end of the court, both him and Griffin were running towards the same direction. If you look at it in slo mo, Jason Smith just nudged Griffin and he flopped and jumped to the side chest first. :rolleyes:

    BTW it seems I'm not alone in the Griffin hate. Dude likes to posterized people but then flops like a fish? C'mon! :rolleyes:

    Can't say he didn't deserve it...he dishes it out, but can't take it. I'm pretty sure Smith was anticipating Griffin to bump him off and he figured he'd come at him too...BG does get a quick elbow in before he goes to the floor. He just didn't land well and bumped his hip. He'll see more of this if he keeps trying to run over players.

    It looked like a pure cheap shot though, so Smith will get like 3 games.

    Griffin is an intimidator on the court, but off the court he'll probaly hang out with Jason Smith like he did with Parsons and Budinger. One day, Griffin will be on WWE, or some Pay Per View stuff.

    How was Nate Robinson foul worse? He actually made an attempt at the ball atleast while delivering his hard foul. Jason Smith made no attempt at the ball. He just lowered his shoulder.


    If he had done this to a rockets player I'm sure the reaction would be much different. Would love to see what the reaction was when Nate Robinson made that foul on Dragic.
