It appears as if the LA Clippers have grown tired of Blake Griffin – at least – that’s the word from Mitch Lawrence who reports Steve Balmer and company have offered a Blake Griffin trade to the Denver Nuggets.
As to the offer, nobody knows what pieces were involved sans the former Oklahoma basketball star, but it seems evident the Clippers could be getting closer to a Blake Griffin trade in the future.
The Clippers have talked to the Nuggets about trading Blake Griffin to Denver, per NBA sources.

You really have to wonder what kind of offer was made considering the Nuggets probably don’t have a ton of pieces of interest to the Los Angeles Clippers, though, they obviously have their eyes on somebody assuming the Blake Griffin trade rumor to be accurate.
Additional rumors suggest that the Clippers were preparing themselves to possibly trade Blake Griffin come the offseason if they struggled during the NBA’s playoffs, though, that’s a bit more cloudy in regards to the sources.
All that said, might Blake Griffin’s time in Hollywood be coming to an end?
Update: Dan Woike says the Clippers were approached by the Nuggets and talks were minimal.
Sources: Denver reached out and asked about Blake Griffin but Clippers weren't interested. Not much discussion
