He is over rated already.... putting up nice stats, but thats expected when the team goes through him and Gordon....

He is on the same level as D.Lee and K.Love.... great stats no impact.


Nah, I disagree. Griffin is special. Very special.


+1

To bad he plays for the Clippers and probably wont be playing in the playoff until hes either traded or leaves as a free agent. I know that I'm going to have a lot of Clippers fans talking smack. But I'm just going by the history of the fanchise. The only knock I have in Griffin is that hes a Clipper.

What he showed me on Sunday, not just with what's in the video....shows me that he really has to mature. I love the guy, he's incredible, and at least he's not LeBron or Kobe personality-wise, but he does need to respect the game and respect the greats. A bit of a humbling experience would be nice for him. You'd think getting hurt for what should have been his rookie season would have done it.....but he definitely needs to get some polish.

Did Reggie Miller have to mature when he did that choke sign at Spike Lee?
He won the game, and had stats to back him up.

So did Blake Griffin.

My sister went to OU and I made it up there for a few games. In college, at least, I was always impressed with his stoic nature while on the court. Collegiate teams would regularly throw scrubs in (a la Robert Horry) to purposefully foul him, talk trash to him, and generally get under his skin in an effort to foul him out as that was the only way to contain him.

In addition, he was so quiet that at the end of the game you would say to yourself, "Did Blake do anything all game?" At which point you would look at the player scoreboard and he would have 30 pts, 15 rebs, & 3 blocks.

I don't mind his competitive attitude and frankly it's nice to know he has one, but what I take exception with is the "F you" and disrespect towards Grant.

And +1000 to missing Lou. It still hurts.

You can't trash talk if you play for the clippers

Reggie Miller wasn't a rookie talking **** to one of the all-time greats.
