The Spurs can be a frustrating team to face, but what Blake Griffin did was inexcusable. I agree with Simmons championship teams don’t do this, and Griffin should’ve been slapped with a technical.

Matt Barnes also had a similar incident earlier in series.
Clippers have tonights game a must win lets hope they can keep their composure as we hope to see this series get interesting with a Game 7.
