    This is just unacceptable. The Clippers are back to their old ways of mistreating their players. After all he has given, this is just ugly.https://twitter.com/ClevisMurray/status/958814029425803265 …

    Blake Griffin says he was "shocked" and "didn't know anything" regarding him being traded, in his intro press conference with the Pistons.

        Eh...not telling players about moves isn't franchise-specific or new. Please don't get folks comparing this to the Sterling times.

        This is far from "unacceptable". This is simply how professional sports have always worked. He's making tens of millions of dollars per year, let's not shed any tears.

        "All he has given." Does that include all of the time he missed with the broken arm he got from hitting a member of the equipment staff? This is normal NBA stuff, nothing to see here. #reaching

        Thus dude is ridiculous sometimes. It’s as simple as this, it’s the clippers. It’s the nba’s shittiest franchise, they do not do smart things.

        this is pretty typical for all nba teams. They dont tell the players in case the deal falls through before its approved and the current reporting culture around sports these days makes it impossible to talk with players before it's reported in the media.

        Get out of your feelings. Clippers owe no employee an explanation about them being traded. Do some real civil rights work #CivilRights

        Usually behind you 100% but this is how players get traded in every sport on every team. It's how the business works.

        They need to start realizing that these are real people living real lives and that they need to include them in these decisions because it will affect them the most.

        It's a business man. Emotions don't pay bills or win championships. And he's still a millionaire so don't feel bad for him.

        All the playoff wins? Championships? What is he given? Injuries? Punches landed on trainers? Commercials? What has he given that makes this sooo wrong for him to be traded?

        I mean this is normal for most teams. Players falling off because of injuries and having a max multiple season contract makes them a prime candidate for a trade.
