    Seems that Blake Griffin went down with a knee injury (day after signing 5/95M extension) and
    I know the kid was the #1 pick, but that's gotta be awesome for a college freshman to have Coach K tell you to report to the Olympic team, ASAP.

    What's the TV schedule for both the Select Team and the Olympic Team, for anything--e.g. games, friendly games, scrimmages?

    This and the Summer League will keep us all busy.

    Word is coming out that the injury occured yesterday, and he woke up with swelling today. Based on the timing things, it appears Griffin signed his (extension) paperwork as his knee was already injured, hiding it from everyone...
