*Swish* Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Heat Vs Clippers is a crazy game so far! Griffin has been doing put backs all over the place! Back to back put backs and then LBJ comes from nowhere and makes a sick alley-oop dunk! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobb Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Really shocked that this game isn't on National TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRV Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Did it look empty on TV? It was packed..and the answer to why it always looks empty is that my tickets were $150 each, plus parking. I was sitting in 105 row 29, so just imagine how expensive all the rows ahead of me are, and those are the only ones on tv. The nose bleed section was packed, and they make it pitch black up there so you can't even notice. I also got there 30 minutes before tip off, and was waiting in a line of traffic just to park to get to the game. I got there like 8 minutes into the game. Aside from that, I loved all of Griffin's dunks....Wade had like 3 chances to posterize someone and missed all those dunks, and the crowd chanting Eddie when he commited the flagrant was great.

Flash Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 I went as well and it got packed as soon as it was 5 minutes in. Griffin is kind of annoying. He complains more than any rookie I've ever seen. I liked the guy at first, but I get the sense that all the hype as the NBA's golden boy is getting to his head a little bit. He carries himself real cocky out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRV Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 I like Griffin.....he is getting the same treatment as Lebron in some sort. His ability to dunk like a beast = ESPN riding him and getting a lot of hype and media attention. He is on the highlights every night, so its kind of hard not to get cocky. Guys like Wade aren't cocky because he got no attention from ESPN until he made it to the finals. DeAndre Jordan dunks just as nice as Griffin, but he gets not attention at all, so he won't end up being as cocky as Griffin. Griffin also got fouled on a few plays today and I was surprised not to see him get some calls, but w.e. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griffin also got fouled on a few plays today and I was surprised not to see him get some calls, but w.e.I agree with most, but ESPN is also riding Griffin because he's doing things no rookie has done since Shaq and Jordan, in regards to some of his individual performances. He already set the rookie consecutive double-double record as well, and he's a threat for a triple-double more than any other big in the NBA, the way he's passing the ball. LeBron wasn't all just dunks, either. He takes over games. He's a superstar. If we were talking about someone like James White, dunking the ball 1-2 times a game and averaging something like 5 PPG on 40% FG, nothing else...it would be different...but ESPN has been all over Griffin for the same reason they were with LeBron, and it's not just about those highlights.
