    "This conduct has no place in our organization" ... there's no way they trade him, right? I mean, you cant trade a top 10 player, right Doc?

    Seems like a standard empty statement. Nothing else they could've said.

    You average 1 post every couple of months for 14 years. Blake Griffin must really interest you.

    Do not want Griffin on Rox. Srs.

    Dude may have peaked, may be entering Amar'e style spiral of injuries, and he's apparently a flaming ahole.

    But Dwight Howard is the headcase in Los Angeles because he smiles.

    Doc Rivers said Blake Griffin will probably be published for his punch of a Clippers' employee after the team's investigation. &mdash; Nate Taylor

    Doc on the Blake incident: "This type of stuff shouldn't happen, but it did. You have to deal with it." &mdash; Wheat Hotchkiss

    Morey should try trading BG for TJones, Tjones stomps on people instead of.punching them so he has no chance of getting injured.

    So soft. He can't even punch anyone without injuring himself.

    No news about what injuries the employee suffered?

    Confirmed the equipment staffer involved was Mathias Testi. Was told he has a swollen face but no fractures. Unclear if he will sue. &mdash; ‏@latbbolch
