:confusedshrug:

Dunked around Howard+Bynum... tip jam in front of Lebron... but neither Kobe and Lebron are going to meet him in the post so it's not going to happen. Was just humorous to hear him flat out say it. You never want to give a poster dunker fuel like that because he's going to purposely do it now if he sees this.

Besides Griffin has time to dunk on everybody... he can only do so much posterizing in two seasons man give him a break :confusedshrug: .

Robinson is stronger than Griffin.

Based on? Griffin was strong enough to hold his ground against Howard... something I doubt Robinson can do. Robinson had 15 reps on the bench at the combine, Griffin had 22 and Griffin outweighs him by 10+ pounds. Trust me when I say Robinson is going to get manhandled.

Mind explaining a little more than that? Only tangible things we know is Griffin is one of the probably top 5 strongest players in the NBA and has no problem outmuscling anybody besides Chuck Hayes, Andrew Bynum and Dwight Howard. Those are the only 3 guys I've seen that can stop Griffin from muscling in the post with ease.

We have 2 years viewing experience of seeing Griffin bully the biggest and baddest basketball players on the planet. Not to mention Griffin had significantly more bench press reps at the combine. So basically tangible evidence says Griffin is stronger than Robinson who muscled a bunch of weaker, smaller players than the NBA bigs.

Let's see if Robinson is even good enough to get significant minutes before we declare him Hercules.

Look below, that's Ibaka. Leading blocker in the NBA this season getting Beasted on. Kobe Bryant? lolololololol He's going to challenge Blake at the rim???? moron. Lebron only blocks people from behind. Only reason the other two haven't been dunked on is because they haven't stepped up to the plate. Blake has quite a few dunks a game, they're free to step up.

Dwight and Bynum would both no question deliver a flagrant foul on Griffin before allowing themselves to get dunked on. CP3 and Kobe dunked on scrawny, rookie Howard that didn't want to step on any toes or piss off NBA superstars. If they tried now he would most likely deliver a hard foul.

So you never explained why you're assuming I'm a bandwagon fan? Use common sense bud. Why would I be so passionate about my team if I'm a random CP3 bandwagoner? I've been a Clippers fan since before Cuban even bought your team and even remember the Mavs turnaround. How Mark bought the team midseason and they dominated the second half of season. How he rebuilt the locker rooms. I watched Finley, Nash, Dirk, Bradley etc.

Maybe you weren't talking to me but I'm the only Clippers fan actively posting in here and I'm going into my 15th season as a fan.

You're being too respectful. The ISH method is to now label him a dirty player and a cheat.. and make a few threads about how he deserves a suspension. That's the Blake Griffin ISH treatment.

Somebody on Clippers Topbuzz who was averaged size met him at PF Changs and took pics and he said Blake was so massive and ripped it was intimidating. I think he'd be huge.

Ofcourse Robinson won't get dunked on by Griffin. Robinson barely challenged shots in college. You're expecting him to in the NBA? Look at his miserable block rate in college. Absolutely pathetic. He's more likely to watch Blake Blow by him and dunk than to challenge him in the air.

Didn't see your post I haven't been following the whole thread.

Howard doesn't clear out that often and I do actually complain when he does it. I also complain about how Howard and Bynum never get called for 3 second's in the paint.

Blake's are just more publicized and blatant which is why they get talked about more often. I don't hate Blake he's probably actually in my top 10 players that I like watching but it just frustrates me when certain players get different treatment to others.

If Robinson tried to defend a Blake dunk atm, offensive foul or not, Robinson would get destroyed.

I just think this is more nitpicking. You guys act like Griffin ONLY dunks with offensive fouls. I mean watch footage of Kemp, Amare etc and you'll see them using the offhand a ton. As Rake has shown before in a thread it's hard to go full steam poster WITHOUT using the offhand in some way.
