Los Angeles Clippers forward Blake Griffin did not retaliate when he was hit in the groin area by the Oklahoma City Thunder’s Serge Ibaka on Sunday, but it might have been different if the Lakers’ Kobe Bryant had been the victim.

“I probably would have smacked him in the mouth,” Bryant said Monday, according to the Los Angeles Daily News. “I would’ve dealt with the pain afterwards.”

It is has not been determined whether the league will levy any punishment against Ibaka.
