While some of the questions are awkward, this is a great interview. You really get a nice insight to Blake Griffin. I’m not a Clippers fan, but I do really like the guy. Blake recently sat down with Rolling Stone and talked about those crazy Justin Bieber rumors, what he thinks of weed in the NBA, Kate Upton and he even answers if his carpet matches the drapes. LMAO! Really?! That’s hilarious to me. Check it out…
Via RollingStone:
The NFL might let players use medical marijuana to treat pain. If you had a vote, would the NBA do the same?
It doesn’t really affect me, but so many guys would probably benefit from it and not take as many painkillers, which have worse long-term effects. So I would vote yes. I just think it makes sense.
There was a Twitter rumor last month that you’d slapped Justin Bieber because he threatened a barista at Starbucks. We know it’s not true. But if you got the chance, would you slap Justin Bieber?
If he was tormenting a Starbucks barista, yeah, I’d have to. As a citizen, you do your part. Also, it’s a way of giving back to the baristas for never really leaving a tip.
Anything you want to tell me about Kate Upton?
No, I plead the fifth on all that. No comment.
There’s some confusion about your hair color. Is it red?
My hair is brown, with a tinge of red. The lights in NBA arenas are extremely bright, and that makes my hair look red.
Does the carpet match the drapes?
[Laughs] It’s a different shade, but it’s close. This is great, I’ve never talked about this before. Sometimes the drapes are open, and the sun hits the carpet just right, so it’s a little worn. You wouldn’t say, “Wait, those are two completely different colors.” It’s more like, “OK, the carpet’s been there for a while. I get it.” Like there’s been some water damage, you know?
