Blake Griffin’s shoe tossing is in mid-season form already.

This wasn’t intentional, but it was pretty funny.

Jamal Crawford lost his shoe during a possession during the first half of the Clippers preseason game against Toronto. Griffin picked the shoe up, but when he realized that a pass was coming his way and he had to get rid of the shoe, he tossed it toward the sidelines — right into the face of Cory Joseph.

Ouch.

Like I said, I don’t think this was intentional. Then again, would I put it past Doc Rivers to draw something like this up? Maybe this is just the team working on their new “high pick with a shoe” play.
