LAC vs POR
I've just finished watching the first quarter and Griffin now has 3 hightlight reel plays and 9 points and 5 rebounds overall. The only reason they are losing at the end of this quarter is because they've given away some easy 3-pointers and have missed some easy 3-pointer.
I can't believe I'm actually going to have FUN at Clippers games this year!!! Since switching coasts they have been my loveable loser underdogs to root for instead of the LA Kobes. Griffin looks great. I can't speak for you guys, but I forgot not just how explosive he is but how quick he is as well. Ooh! And he just stroked a J from 17 as I'm typing!
with 310 left in the 3rd blake griffen has been goin off all game.. hes not only a phisical athletic freak with post skills he can also get out on the break, handle the ball, and drop dimes. there is nothing he cant do on the court, but what is really impressing me is his perimeter skills.. he can handle the ball and shoot. what do you think about a lebron james comparrison? dont kill me i know its his first game im just saying he is a dominating phisical presence but can handle the ball pass and hes pretty damn fast.. you heard it here first hes the closest thing to lebron.

You see what I mean? Look at the Clippers' last few possessions... They have no closer. This is the usual for them. They give games away in the 4th quarter. Bad shots. Turnovers. Missed assisgnments on D. This is what they do.
they went to kaman and kaman didnt deliver. BUt some of those were strong shots that didnt drop and no one else was acting like they wanted the ball other then griffin. Making gestures and dropping his head and raising his hands after each time his teammates miss a shot isnt gonna endear a rookie to his teammates. Im not making a big deal out of it, just pointing somehting out.
Clippers are more exciting but seems like the same ole clippers. Defense was soso.
Lost at home to a team playing the second of back to backs
Like the people calling the game said., they have zero help at sf
Even with Blake and Eric playing well they still lose by double figures or close
Kaman missed shots but so did lamarcus so that evens out
Yeah, but Jordan isn't a starter who has basically no offense. I like him as a an energy guy and his stats for 9min are impressive, but they just drafted an SF at the 8th position. I would start Butler to spread the floor and bring Aminu and Jordan as energy guys of the bench until Aminu is ready to start.
He's not as fast or athletic as LBJ, The dude was completely worn out by the 4th quarter. He can't dribble with his left hand as you may see in many highlights, he doesn't have that court vision that LeBron has although he showed pretty good court vision.
Blake Griffin is good, but I compare him to Amar'e Stoudemire with Gerald Wallace motor.
I'm tired of people saying Jordan aint ready
How isn't he? And how do you know this do you see him in practice?
Jordan played ten minutes and had 3 blocks and went one for one and more importantly looks like the natural compliment to Blake. Jordan, Gordon, Blake, B Diddy, and Aminu and is a hell of a lot of athleticism comin at ya.
Kamen for Iggy let's start the rumors again its a great trade for both teams.
Iggy inserted between Blake and Gordon is a match made in heaven he will compliment these two developing superstars perfectly.
And yes let's not give Blake all the hype because Eric Gordon is on his way to becoming a superstar also. He is one of the most athletic guards in the league and also one of the best shooting guards. Thats a very rare combination and he had a few monster plays himself.
been watching for about 5 minutes and Griffin already has two huge dunks - one an ally oop - and a quick cut to the basket. His knee looks 100% but it might not even be...that scary
