Next 10 years who would you rather have Love or Griffin 

Post#1 » by NYCrusader » Thu Jan 5, 2012 4:36 am

Kevin Love or Blake Griffin??

-Both Power Forwards
-Age differential is 1 year with Love being born in 88 and Blake in 89
-Both put up 20 and 10 last year, and doing the same this year...

So who is your pick??

Who would you build around??

you probably build around Griffin but Love would be an awesome sidekick... depends on what your team needs

Griffin no doubt. Neither has shown the ability to carry a team but one of them sells tickets like crazy.

Love will last longer in this league. I'd take him.

I'd take Love because he doesn't rely on athleticism unlike Blake, and Love is a better rebounder and also has more range, just an all round better skillset.

Love- I could see him putting up 20-15 for around 15 more years

I choose Love...

Griffin in his short career has been very good but you really don't have to worry about stoping him to a certain degree he get's his buckets off of 2nd chance opportunities, alley-ops and fast breaks not someone that can really create his own shot on a consistent basis...

You have to stop the facilitator who sets up Griffin, which is Chris Paul now...

Love.

Griffin has already missed an entire season to a knee injury, and with his high flying play style, I wouldn't be surprised at all if he misses even more time to similar injuries.

I can't believe a majority are saying Love.

He's an awesome player, but Griffin is already better and has the chance to be a top 5 player, I don't think you can say that for Love.
