What a joke. Its a flagrant if you hit a star and there is a fuss when he lands.

I love the foul by Sullinger. The NBA has been really wussed out nowaday to call that a flagrant

Rondo has missed a pair of layups here. Killing Boston's comeback attempts.

I don't mind that being a flagrant. Sully didn't get anywhere near the ball and the foul was very physical, potentially dangerous. No complaints.
Only looks bad because Griffin is jumping so hard and fast.

Same [dang] contact against KG/Pierce/Bass is a normal foul, every single time. Even when its the same shoulder contact. They just can't explode as hard as Griffin.

We are in trouble.

Clippers are a dirty team, someone needs to give Chris Paul an elbow to the throat

Dirty? How so?

Flopping, shoving, Griffin nailing rondo in the back of the head.

Quoted for truth. Simply not a good team.

Embarrassing

Yea doc yell at the kid that was trying to protect himself :P ::)

yell at the kid who missed his rotation. thankfully sullinger is mature and can take it. he wasn't yelling at him for the foul, which was a good hard foul, not a flagrant, but teaching him how his rotation was late.

and, yes, k, the ref's have been horrible. the c's are losing this game on their own. that doesn;t negate the fact that the refs have been calling ticky tack fouls on the c's all night.

Yeah, it's because he got so high and because Sully was nowhere near the ball that I think it's a fair flagrant. Sully just had no chance of making a play on the ball and he hammered him. He had too. Griffin was too powerful. Only way to stop him was to hammer him. 

It wouldn't be a flagrant on another player because other players can't make that type of play that Griffin just made. I am okay with that.

This team is horrifyingly bad. I can't even get mad. I'm not sad. I don't find it amusing. Nothing. I'm just numb and over it.

The Clippers are doing what they want to do. We used to do that type of thing.
