Lamar Odom gave Blake Griffin a little of what he's had coming to him for months now. While some opponents marvel at Griffin's devastating dunks, and highlight fetishists wait each night for Clipper clips, fans of physical old school basketball have been wondering why nobody has laid a hammer on Griffin to let the rookie know that life in the paint ain't easy.
Near the end of last night's Lakers loss to their Los Angeles housemates, Odom dragged Griffin into extracurricular action, leading to the rookie's first ejection. The only damage done was one tugged jersey. Maybe next time, somebody like Kurt Thomas or Kevin Garnett will deliver a stronger message to Griffin to keep his ego below the rim.
