VIDEO: Glen Davis either flopped or got tasered by Leandro Barbosa
Everything has a silver lining. Everything.
Even when a contender loses an All-Star, as the Los Angeles Clippers have with Blake Griffin, there is a positive.
In this case, Griffin's injury has meant more minutes for Glen Davis, which is always a good thing. Davis was averaging 10.3 minutes before Griffin's injury and has averaged 15.5 since. Considering Davis leads the league annually in Vines per-36 minutes, it's not surprising that he's been producing hilarious highlights of late.
His latest came against the Golden State Warriors on Sunday and may have him on the receiving end of a call from the league office.
Davis acted as if he had been shot as Leandro Barbosa drove by him in the fourth quarter and pushed off just a tad. The reaction makes it seem as if Barbosa was holding a taser when he drove past. And it worked - Barbosa was whistled for the offensive foul.
Davis doesn't have a flop warning on his record for this season so he'll avoid a fine, but the delayed dramatics are likely to get him a warning.
