"They told me I was going to be performing on a stage, and I thought it was going to be basketball, so I'm sorry I have nothing planned for you guys."

It's evident that Los Angeles Clippers forward Blake Griffin has a passion for comedy, having already taken the stage at the Laugh Factory earlier this summer. He's also displayed his sense of humor in several commercials and acting roles that show he may have a future in the industry once his basketball career comes to an end.

Taking his stand-up routine to the next level, the 27-year-old was behind a mic once again late in July at the renowned Just For Laughs festival in Montreal.

Most of his set focused on the trials and tribulations of being a professional athlete, including how awkward it is to take part in postgame interviews.
