    This is not making fun of Griffin, I just thought the story was heart wrenching and my hopes go out to the family and Griffin :(

    Crap title. Too bad you can't change it.

    I heard Blake lost his childhood best friend, but would not be changing his weekend schedule as far as All Star festivities go...

    for a young kid that's got to be difficult.

    Whether some of you think the title was bad or not it's not telling a lie.


    Sad story. What was should be a great weekend for him will now be pretty tough.

    Just shows that life is never fair.

    Blake is on top of the world, on the other hand his friend succumbs to a terrible illness.. Prayers for the family who lost a son and Blake Griffin who lost a friend.

    I changed the title of the thread to reflect the title of the article.
