I honestly question if some of y'all watch Blake Griffin play. The people in particular who says he has no moves, or all he does in Dunk as if you can score 22 a game off dunks

i dont think anyone actually thinks he has no moves, he just looks really really awkward with his moves. like his jumpshot is there sometimes but its not a pretty jumpshot (word to noah)

Even if he did score 22 off of dunks, nobody is stopping him.

So that's it? Because his buckets aren't as pretty? Wow I guess man

At the end of the day, your team isnt going far with blake as your 2nd best player

 

[Peep Game]

Man I wish McHale's coaching style matched his interviews and general off the court persona. He just tells it like it is, and is hilarious while doing so.

So are the Pacers frauds now? Will they now get swept by the Wizards or the Hawks in the first round because of this loss? Pls respond

I've been saying this for awhile now...

Kevin McHale and Matt Millen are two of the best on air personalities who are just god awful at real jobs like coaching or front office stuff

Shaun

Glad to see he's found a solid role there. Seems to have really asserted himself after that terrible injury way back

You spelled Jamal Crawford wrong

 

[don ramon]

they're running this clip of the blake griffin ankle injury like the zapruder film

 

[sea manup]

the jamal crawford slander tonight is ridiculous

McHales not a BAD coach... He's just that guy who can make a bad squad decent or a decent squad good but never a good one great. Like Doug Collins type, or Larry Brown who I maintain got lucky with that pistons team Rick Carlisle built.

Dwight swishing FTs   Building that confidence

You'd think he'd get into a rhythm shooting so many a game. Today he did.

the lead got even bigger when they started to hack a dwight

its only a matter of time he develops a rhythm

Don't get too excited over Dwight having a good FT night... A good FT for him being 70% as he was tonight.. He'll have these from time to time then the next game go 47%

Law of averages

My inner optimist wants to say this could be a building block, but I won't get my hopes up. For what it's worth, some of them looked really good tonight.

Blake Griffen is currently shooting 50% in post up situations .93 ppp, ranked 10th in league thusfar.

Ocaasional awkward 180 spins of wrong foot? Sure, but for the most part he's a fundamentally sound guy with his back to the basket, not flashy, but effective, also while also being an excellent passer.



Is it the commercials? because i don't get the hate.

It's style points. We've said this before, dunks count the same as jumpers. Awkward post moves count the same as a dream shake. 2 points is 2 points anyway you can get it

 

[100027]

Nets have awesome depth . They just need to get their starters playing well together and they could go very far.

Quake checking back in to silence the haters. Watch him cook!!!

Agree. Also agree with rck3sactown about McHale and Millen really being guys that have very good broadcasting intelligence and seem to really know the game, but just can't get it done in the front office.

I hate Blake Griffin because he seems like a douche.

But come on y'all. Blake is not a bad player. He's definitely a top PF. I feel like you guys just say **** just to say it.

I feel like Blake Griffin is one of the few normal dudes in the league as far as big time names are concerned. He seems like a college bro that happens to make millions playing basketball.
