*Swish* Posted February 9, 2011 Report Share Posted February 9, 2011 In my opinion, Blake Griffin is one of the most exciting player to watch in the NBA but he misses one of the key aspect of the game that you need to have to win more games and be a better player: DEFENSE.As you know, it takes more than dunks. He averages 21 points and 12 rebounds per game not only with dunks. He has a decent bank shot that is effective (ask Tim Duncan) and with his athleticism, he gets to the rim with ease. Also has footwork and post up decent moves but to me, his defense could be MUCH better. I still didn't see one block of him the whole season. If he'd step up on defense, he'd be a way better player. As a rookie, he still has a lot to learn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newman Posted February 9, 2011 Report Share Posted February 9, 2011 Takes time to learn the way opposing players move and he definitely have the tools to become a solid defender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
