This Youtube comment from the vid couldn't have summed up Blake Griffin any better:
All I can say is get a 6'8" 300lb bouncer from the club to guard Blake Griffin and he wouldn't score a point the whole game. The guy can't do anything but dunk. Most overrated player in the game. And for the love of God a mouth piece is for protection. Not to chew on like a ****en chew toy the whole game. But he does kinda look like a dog so maybe I should let it slide.

That jumper looks a little gay.

Was the OP thinking that it was stylish and awesome looking, considering that he posted so many pictures of it, and telling us to beware, talking it up.

Blake Griffin sucks

Griffin will get there. He's working on his jump shot, even has a shooting coach. It won't happen over night, but he should have that consistent jumper in time. Once he feels comfortable he will gain confidence and it's a go. A consistent 15 footer would be great. No need for shooting 3's when you are a PF.

I feel like I could see this guy in a Knicks uniform for a max deal a few years down the road, and im not liking that idea

However, Blake's statline of 20.7/10.9/3.2/.8/.7 is matched by only like 3 guys all time they were named like kareem or hakeem or some shyt like that. But anyway, you gota be kinda impressed with that

Apart from dunking, Griffin sucks... OP BG's jumpshot is horrible and his post game is just pathetic for a guy his size.. WTF is that spinning off balanced layup shit he always does????

[unknowns8]

aren't they all running jump shots? hence the poor shooting form

Right. So someone like Durant is just going to stop getting better? LeBron is going to fall off that much in five years? Dwight Howard? Chris Paul?

Not saying it's not possible, but I'd say Griffin being the best player in the NBA in five years is unlikely.

Durant is the most overrated player since Iverson. He's a borderline top 10 player right now. He's the least impressive star right now in the league.

Griffin will easily surpass Howard and Paul (who is just about as overrated as Durant), and should pass lebron because he is a harder worker and a smarter player.

Griffin will eventually develop a pick and pop game and improve on defense.

Griffin has a great looking shot for a back to the basket big and has.improved his mechanics this summer. The shot OP.is showing here is just his fallaway jumper that he rarely does. He's actually good at hitting it.

Griffin shot 27.7% from 10-15 feet. 15.4% were assisted - this shows that Griffin can't create his own shot efficiently.

Blake Griffin can only dunk, but since when was that bad? He has the skills to create those dunks with quick spins and good strength and handles. He's quicker than most PF's and has the skills to take his man off the dribble. Also he's a very good passer.

couple that with the energy he shows rebounding. The guy's a star quit hating
