Blake Griffin tells the tale of the night he barricaded DeAndre Jordan in his own house

The epic tale turned out to be a bit different than we saw on social media.

At the dawn of the NBA making a community for itself on social media sites such as Twitter, one story stands out in league lore.

We are, of course, talking about the drama surrounding where big man DeAndre Jordan would sign. At one point, Jordan appeared barricaded online with former Boston Celtic Paul Pierce and future Celtic Blake Griffin. The epic tale turned out a bit different than we saw on social media.

Griffin recently sat down to tell the tale to the hosts of the team podcast “The View from the Rafters.”

Take a look at the clip embedded above to hear what he had to say about that fateful night.
