I finished the Daily Tap and sat down to edit it with the end of the Rockets-Clippers game. As this game finished up, things started to get real with Blake Griffin started to get into with Houston Rockets head coach Mike D’Antoni which led to Chris Paul and Trevor Ariza talking shit to him. Ariza and Griffin would get tossed from the game after Blake came to the defense of Austin Rivers. Well, it didn’t end there as the Rockets tried to fight with the Clippers in the postgame.

Rockets players were clamoring for Blake Griffin too, league sources said. Chris Paul also entered with other Rockers players through a backstory that connects team dressing rooms. https://t.co/BRgyHe1WgL

From Woj’s tweets, it appears Chris Paul showed the team a back way to get into it and have words with the Clippers players. It appears we had Paul, James Harden, Trevor Ariza and Gerald Green in the mix for this one. I LOVE THIS SHIT. Give me everything that’s involved with something like this. The NBA is perfect right now. People hate each other guts again, and it’s fucking perfect. Rockets-Clippers become a must-see television event in late February. There’s a chance these two teams could meet in the playoffs too! So good. Rivers shouldn’t be the one talking shit, but that’s not here nor there.

I tweeted out if Ariza is a fake tough guy or an actual tough guy. It seems like we’re going with the latter. Cannot wait for the next matchup.

Charlie.
