Blake Griffin certainly is taking the cheap low blow to the man region from Serge Ibaka, a lot better than most of us would. Even Kobe Bryant sounded off on the incident. Maybe this is why Blake Griffin is so easy to root for. Griffin took a bad situation and turned it into a hilarious tweet.
Kid Blake: Who are you? Future Blake: you from the future… Don’t listen to anything else I’ve told you just start wearing a cup.

Griffin was referring to the KIA commercial that features Blake Griffin going back into time to give advice to the young kid, Blake Griffin.
