Knicks · OT: When are the ref's going to start calling Griffin for the hand on the defenders shoulder dunk? (page 1)
Rookie@ 4/5/2012 12:29 PM
Seriously...it's total bullshit already! It's a foul and needs to be called as a foul. There is no way a defender can elevate with Griffin's hand on his shoulder holding him down as he uses the opponent to elevate for a dunk...isn't this completely obvious to the ref's. Rant off.
jrodmc@ 4/5/2012 12:32 PM
As soon as they go back and negate most of Pippen's dunks for traveling.
As soon as they get done not watching Griffin's hand on the shoulder and stop watching him look down at the rim.
As soon as the commissioner's office stops threatening their children for any fouls called on superstars.
Are you seriously thinking Griffin's only elevating like that because he gets a hand on someone's shoulder? Are you serious?

He's protected by the NBA and Kia Motors official sponsor of the NBA
Now let's look at his other devastating dunk over Gasol...MAN!! Pau better name his first, second and third born after Griffin after this night.

I agree I am sick of it too! I'm anxiously awaiting the day he gets leveled Oakley style and is forced to undergo season ending surgery again.

Might as well; after getting abused like that, they're all going to look like Blake, anyway.

And I get picked on for using the word "cancer"
Life's not fair.

Did you see Deandre Jordan get pissed at Griffin and furiously shove him or was he celebrating? Looks like he was pissed
Clean@ 4/5/2012 12:41 PM
Both dunks were offensive fouls. The first Blake elbowed Pau in the side of the head. He was going for his hold the defender down dunk but was coming in to fast so it turned into an elbow to the head. The second dunk was a clear over the back foul. If that is not an over the back foul why even have it in the rule book? I also like how he gets to stare, pose and shove defenders after the dunk with no techs.
gunsnewing@ 4/5/2012 12:42 PM
of course he's going to dunk over guys when he punches them in the face everytime first!

I'm still a fan of old school style basketball...but you can't have it both ways. Either call the foul or let all the bigs beast.
gunsnewing@ 4/5/2012 12:43 PM
With that said that putback dunk was unbelievable...look how much higher he got up than Gasol!

oh snap! I had missed that. to funny
crzymdups@ 4/5/2012 1:13 PM
i agree - i think it's a foul. he elbows pau in the face, plants his forearm to jump higher.
shaq used to get away with similar bullying play down low that was never called.
i hate it.
glad the lakers won in spite of that baloney. and i'm no lakers fan.

you are missing the point. Just about any big in the league can 'man dunk' (well, except maybe Jeffries:)...except it's a foul and would be called as such

You are missing the point. If any big man in the league can 'man dunk' like that, what conspiracy theory/social injustice/evil motive are you going to provide to explain why we're only seeing the Griffin highlights? Or you talkin' bout practice?
The man can plain out-elevate just about anyone and he's effing 6'10". I for one would love to see all those offensives in a Knick uniform.
Haters gon' hate.

It's like if someone did that at the playground, the hardcourts, or YMCA you think everyone playing\watching would be like "No, no, no, wave the basket, he used his off hand to brace himself to facialize you. Basket doesn't count, our ball"

You can spin it any way you want. It's still a foul.Either call it or let everyone do it
