Lets be real, Blake Griffin's career as we know it is over

[Tony D'Amato]

Its clear he has some form of tendinitis in his knee. Clippers medical staff misdiagnosed him and thats why it took him so long to get back. They also didnt tell Big Baby Davis he fractured his ankle. Didn't even give him an MRI

@pete clemenza this organization is still ran like shyt.

I do agree that he has some form of degenerative knee issue that going forward can only be managed. However Blake has shown to be a skilled enough player that he can reinvent himself so I still think he can be a top 15 guy in the league...maybe even top 10...just not as explosive...

Everybody get's hype about his dunks and athleticism but he has been relying on those things less and less ever year...

When the Celtics give that godfarther offer of picks for him in the off season I think the Clippers might be forced to take it no matter how this season turns out for them...

@pete clemenza clips lyin, it was clear his knee is fukked. He was not holding his Quad. Don Maclean said this injury ended his career

 

[feelosofer]

Trade him to Pheonix.

 

[Remote]

I wonder if he can see the future like he did in those commercials.

Maybe he doesn't want to.

Do it Mitch

 

[SchoolboyC]

I had the same thoughts, that his career might not be the same

 

[director_of_bands]

that ngga never had a true offensive game anyway...his shot is trash...his moves are trash...they just look sensational because of his athleticism...sensational dunks don't win games

foh with that 2011 scouting report. you dont surgically destroy a team like the spurs over a 7 game series if you dont have a polished offensive game



not a single dunk in that video by him

 

[ExodusNirvana]

Dudes wanted the Knicks to trade Melo for him straight up too...

The quad tendon is right above the knee though

The quad tendon is right above the knee though

That does seem to be where he was pointing

But how many people tear that tendon? Seems a lot more serious than theyre letting on.

 

[Damnshow]

If that's not the clear sign of franchise being cursed then I dont know what the hell is

They rushed blake to get back on the court for that warriors series and they ended up losing both of the main players for the playoffs. They had a realistic chance of making it to the conference finals with curry missing and then that shyt happened in one day.

This team is a dumpster, they been destroying careers like elton brand, braon davis and so on. Why put blake on the court so early? Why did they play him at the end of season? Couldn't they wait for a few more weeks? CLippers without blake would have won against blazers/grizzlies/mavs, they knew before letting blake play that grizzlies were finished with d league players, they knew that mavericks were missing their pieces, so why did they let him play? To shake that so called rust off? I mean holly shyt blake looked like he was playing through pain.

According to this, it's not a common injury and can take 4-6 months for recovery, up to a year. It's serious, they should have never brought him back to play.
