    To be honest didn't look like that hard a hit.

    If that is a hard foul, then everybody else in the NBA commits flagrants.

    Perhaps Griffin was off balance because he was trying to jump and going pretty fast.

    That was that hard of a foul, but it was cheap

    You don't bump a player running at full speed

    "Cheap shot"? Was that any cheaper than what Blake Griffin did to Mario Chalmers?

    Eddie House is no more of a "punk" than Blake Griffin. If Griffin is going to dish out hard fouls, he better be able to take some too.

    Anybody see Griffin's foul on Al Horford Friday? I hope someone dishes that exact same foul back on him.

    Looks like a flop. If Eddie House really wanted to cheap shot Blake, he would've put his whole body into that shove... instead it was just a push with the arm, trying to prevent an alley-oop.

    To answer your first question, YES. Griffin is goin at full speed about to jump into the air. On the other hand, I don't think Griffin could have caused Chalmers any injury.

    Just saw Griffin's foul on Al Horford. Actually looks like he made an attempt at the ball. Not a "punk" move at all there...

    All I know is most of this board would be singing a different song if it was video of KG pushing players smaller than him like Griffin has been doing.

    It's not really a hard foul. It's just that Blake goes so fast that if you bump him some, he's prone to losing his balance and coming down hard. That's just a normal foul, really.

    Griffin had not launched, so House's push wasn't so much.

    I hope Griffin gets his share of "not punk" fouls while he's fully extended in the in air about to dunk.

    That Rafer slap of House is hilarious. LOL!
