In what has become a frequent issue for him, Clippers forward Blake Griffin is out for the rest of the postseason after injuring “the plantar plate of his right big toe.” Griffin suffered the injury in the second half of the Clippers' 111-106 win over the Utah Jazz in Game 3 of their first-round series. The Clippers now have a 2-1 lead in the series and will have to beat the Jazz without Griffin.
This is familiar territory for the Clippers though, as Griffin has an injury riddled past and missed significant time due to injuries over the last couple of years. And since Griffin gets injured so frequently, NBA and Clippers fan weren't too surprised but they still took to Twitter to express their frustration with Griffin's injury through jokes and also anger.
