Clippers-Warriors Game 7 ends in hallway altercation
The Clippers took great exception to the way the Warriors had celebrated in this same setting after their Game 1 win and certainly weren't about to tone it down out of some sort of professional courtesy.
The incident came in two waves, with most of the Warriors in the hallway at one point along with several Clippers. The police were called to assist, though it's not believed any punches were thrown.
While all the details of the situation were not immediately clear, it's believed that Warriors big man Marreese Speights was the aggressor for the Warriors while point guard Chris Paul was allegedly the irritant for the Clippers - though maybe even in silence. As was described by the witnesses, Paul came along as the incident appeared to be dying down and his mere presence picked things up again.
He wasn't alone, though, as Matt Barnes and Glen Davis were also among the other Clippers players seen at the scene. The Warriors' Jermaine O'Neal, Stephen Curry and Steve Blake were also involved, with Golden State coaches - including head coach Mark Jackson - eventually coming out when the situation escalated.
"It's not really Blake Griffin; it's all Chris Paul for real," the former Memphis Grizzlies big man said as he sat near the loading dock. "Chris Paul starts all of that stuff. Before Chris Paul came here, the team was not like that."
