    no what people perceive is that he can 'only' dunk which might be a problem with good rim protection. Which is a also a myth, he is effective in the PnR and his post game is improving everyday (which people don't tend to believe because of the myths created by TNT).

    True, I posted that video last page too btw :p. Most impressive to me is his improving defense. Usually it's just average or slightly above... but then there are stretches where I'm seeing a guy with KG's defensive versatility and he's switching onto guards, getting steals in the passing lanes, singlehandedly shutting down PNR etc. He has the quickness and strength to guard multiple positions, now he just needs the experience, coaching and repetition.

    We'll see, we'll see! Well, one can only hope. He didn't do so well against Blake and Farmar. Lin's D has really improved.

    Here's what you said:

    I don't watch any of those pre-game/post-game/half-time shows. My observations about Griffin are my own.

    It's a laughable argument to say that Griffin is a clutch player, but because he has CP3 on his team, he doesn't need to be clutch.

    Yep, when you say that Blake Griffin has a superior post game to Al Jefferson, it's pretty clear your eye test is seeing something wrong.

    Why do you believe Griffin converts more baskets from the post than Al Jefferson? Because of some youtube videos? I'm sure you can find videos of Rondo hitting jumpers. Does that mean Rondo has a consistent jump shot?

    Doesn't get that kind of treatment in the playoffs. Great game by him tonight.

    great player but he's a little instigator..also

    Garcia gives him a little nudge

    *Chris Paul complains*

    10 seconds later

    ref: "I got this.."

    *calls T on Garcia*

    Chris Paul will be the MVP this year.

    A player of his caliber should win at least 1 MVP in their career, and it might as well be this year.

    Plays like this than agreed. But still not good enough to win a ring.

    Its hard to take you seriously when you talk about winning when you have tmac in your username sorry. A career loser who only made it to the 2nd round when he was injured.:eek:

    Instead of continuing the discussion, you guys choose the childish route and attack his username instead.

    Grasping at straws.

    There's nothing to discuss. If this guy thinks that you can't win with CP3-- one of the best PGs of all time-- he just knows nothing about basketball.

    Bro- add to the discussion. Discussing my username? I think Mcgrady was a talented cry baby. He was a great player who didn't have the heart to win.

    Your moniker states that Chris Paul is your favorite player? Lol guy hasn't made it past the second round and is the biggest flopper in the league. Let me induce the concept that you enjoy a player who has little playoff success and you enjoy the art of flopping? I guess I can't take you serious either. LOL

    Well 9 years in the league and nothing past the second round. I think I have merit in what I'm saying. Go to the Clipper board where you can discuss the art of the flop. I used to love Chris Paul, but he doesn't win in the playoffs and flops worse than Christiano Ronaldo. I can't respect a player like that.

    Not baiting. Just sounding stupid. I can tell the kid is either 40 and at home with mommy or 12.

    I was refering to you. You don't understand anything about how Championship teams are made of.
