2013-2014 NBA Thread - IND @ WAS and OKC @ LAC on ESPN

besides the occasional dunk, what exactly does he do good?

Best passing Pf in basketball. Runs the floor. Rebounds. Oh and scores. But I guess if it doesn't come on a pretty post up, it doesn't count.

man there is a better passing PF in THIS GAME. his name is David Lee

ya he runs the floor, i think most NBA players do. 

Rebounds? ya a little bit.  not nearly as much as he should considering his size + athleticism

scores on lobs and putbacks only. give half his points to CP3 for the setup/  his offensive game outside of that is trash

at this point Diandre Jordan > Blake Griffin.

Yo curry don't miss

 

[anomolie]

Griffin is a good player but that's pretty much it. He's missing something ..

I agree

Why they keep showing doc rivers face EVERY second Jesus Christ

Deandre Jordan is a lame

[don ramon]

i mean you're a professional ball player

there's just no excuse to make a terrible free throw like that

none


damn i'm still behind. keep forgetting to press live on my remote

 

[nelson999]

He's a good passer but you said the BEST? hell no

He isn't even the best passing PF in LA 

Gasol is

The Blake Griffin slander is getting out of hand. Blake is a very flawed player but he's still put up 20 & 10 on 53% for his career including the year before CP3 got there. LOL at DeAndre being better.

 

[don ramon]

that's why chris paul is a weasel

ol floppin *** self

 

[imlive365]

Chris Paul with a flop then a 3

 

[MIKE LOWERY]

Give CP3 an oscar nod already sheesh

 

[dt43]

Reggie hates Blake lol

Griffin gonna pull a Demarcus Cousins on Sean Elliot and come see him after the game

Everybody hates Blake Griffin. Its the cool thing to do. He does so much good on the court, yet they only focus on his weakness.

Simmons and Zach Lowe were speaking about how his flaws are wildly overstated... And how he's actually become underrated.

People focus on his weakness because based on his hype you would think he's the best PF in the game. Yet when you actually watch him play the difference between him and the elite PFs is so clear.


Anthony Davis gets 1/10th of the hype Griffin does, but I would take Davis over Griffin right now.

Good stats on a bad team, yawn..

 

[nelson999]

Griffin is a good player but that's pretty much it. He's missing something ..

and he's not improving his game at all, that's the real problem and why people are starting to talk about him.

 

[julius wrek]

the calls in this game have been ridiculous.

I mean, I now they embarrassed they lost the opener to the Lakers,

but don't baby these dudes.

Doc and cp are made for each other.

 

[lynchpin33]

this blake griffin postup stuff is downright frustrating, it doesn't look smooth, it just look awkward when he starts his post position 20 feet from the basket -- many times in 3 point land....

but he does it in a sleezy way

SRS

flopping your way to the basket and off arming on dunks/layups isnt skill..

 

[nelson999]

 
LOL at DeAndre being better.

What does Blake do better than Diandre at this point besides maybe passing, and Free Throw shooting a little bit?

 

[larrydavid]

Thompson and Iggy going to sleep this quarter like they so often do 

 

[don ramon]

Doc and cp are made for each other.

they really are

they really know how to toe the line of getting away with as much as they can and come out looking golden

 

[Bert.]

also i hate the way CP cries everytime he gets called for a foul. beyond annoying :x

 

[nelson999]

 

best analysis of Blake Griffins game i have ever read

Good stats on a bad team, lmao. You clearly don't watch basketball. The misconceptions on Blake Griffin is absolutely crazy. He's hated and dumped on, more than he's hyped. Anthony Davis is loved and hyped by everyone. Blake is a top 3 Pf in the league.

 

[cliffordsmith]

Blake was a All Star before cp3 arrived though.
