The Blake Griffin era in Los Angeles ended ugly, and he clearly has not forgotten about it.
Griffin was approached by Clippers owner Steve Ballmer while warming up on the court at Staples Center before Saturday’s game tipped off, and he clearly wasn’t interested in dapping the billionaire up.
Ballmer reached out his hand in a handshake attempt, and rather than shaking it, Griffin just took off running toward the locker room.

Griffin made a pretty clear statement about how he feels toward Ballmer and the Clippers organization on that exchange. The probability of the Clippers retiring his jersey in the future appears to have decreased a bit.
