PLAYA VISTA — By the time Blake Griffin stood in front of the microphones and the cameras before Friday’s Clipper practice, sweat poured down his face. It wasn’t the lights or the unseasonable Southern California heat. It was the intense workout he completed before starting the next one.
After he spoke to the press, he went on the court to work with assistant coach John Welsh, draining 3-pointers, driving to the basket near full speed.
With the Clippers less than a week away from their season opener, one thing has come into focus. Blake Griffin will not be proceeding with caution.
