blake griffin the most overrated player in the nba?

[You mad bro]

one of the biggest "star" named players in the NBA and he still has no game outside of a dunk .... yet people still consider him a top 5 PF in the league ... i dont get it .. all the hype for a player who can dunk

[SportsPedagogy]

I kinda feel it is Deron Williams. Great players lead teams to being significant. The Nets were horrible last year.

[Darkside Magick]

Deron Williams overrated ....lmaooooooo.....smh....ohhhh by the way.....Blake is terrible

[iifold]

He put on muscle hoping players would stop punking him like a bitch on the playground...

Didn't work... David Lee of the Warriors was the latest to treat him like a 2-Bit Whore...

[MCOZONE]

Easily. Don't block shots. Makes stupid plays and has a worse range than Kristen Stewart.

[Frisco]

One of my favorite bets to do is that Blake Griffin will miss his first shot. It's usually +115ish and tends to play out like this.... Deandre Jordan wins the tip, he passes to CP3, Cp3 crosses half court and then passes the ball to Griffin about 15-20 feet from the hoop, he gives a few jab steps and lazy pump fakes, and then finally he clanks one off the rim.

[You mad bro]

he has no jumper .. plays no defense ... and his post game is even worse ... i dont understand why everyone gives him so much credit for being able to jump 2 feet to dunk the ball ... its a shame

[Frisco]

Kevin Love is pretty overrated too

[onlooker]

Yes. Been saying this since his 2nd rookie season.

[ChalkyDog]

Yes. Griffin is an athlete - but I think even that is overrated. He just dunks really hard.

Kevin Love is still among the most underrated players in the game... Absolutely no business being in the NBA, he can't play above the rim - but he uses his brain and fundamentals and dominates on the boards. On top of that, he can stretch the defense with his range. He is all hustle. That kind of talent doesn't deteriorate very quick. He will be around a long time putting up 20 and 10.

[SportsPedagogy]

I am just saying, if Lebron James led a team to 22-44, all hell would break lose.

I don't know about that one. That kid should get an endorsement from a hamburger chain, he's mister DOUBLE-DOUBLE!

[Frisco]

Love should try playing some defense and quit worrying about padding his rebounding stats.

[lunchbawks]

i love when blake takes a jumper and the defense clears out

[Frisco]

I agree w/ u. I hate seeing him on top 5 pg lists ahead of guys like Parker or Rondo.

[Frisco]

Reminds me of Will Ferrel refusing to play D in Semi Pro b/c of the corndog promotion lol

[byronbb]

[face]

he always sucks at the end of games. freezes up and takes tons of time

Burst out laughing reading this

But to answer the thread, yes.
A lot of hype over him just because he can dunk.

[A4K]

Just think how useless Griffin will be when he loses his hops, seriously.

[You mad bro]

rondo is the best PG in the league by far ... plays defense and he understands how to play offense .. just because he scores 10 points if that a game doesnt mean shit ... any team would love to have him setting up his guys on offense ...

sg wise i cant say anyone is better than kobe overall ... top 5 defender every year and offensive machine ...

sf lebron obviously than durant

pf i love aldrich from portland .. he has no team though at all

and c probably dwight or bynum i guess

[You mad bro]

he wouldnt even be his brother lmaoo

[MCOZONE]

he wouldnt even be his brother lmaoo

He'll be lucky to have Eddie Griffin's game.

I like your choices. Have no idea where Lebron should be classified tho (i tend to put him in the PG category myself). Favorite PF is still Dirk but would definitely take Lamarcus b/c of his age

thats whats cool about the nba in a way .. u have players playing more than 1 position ... versatility to the max is all lebron .. he can play the 1-4 and sometimes can probably play the 5 if the center on the other team is small enough lol ... durant can play the 2-4 if he wanted to and even power forwards like josh smith can play the 3-5 ... dirk is amazing but his lack of defense is frustrating ... dwight gives u 20 and 10 every night and plays defense like an animal ... i hate players who get all the hype from dunking, meanwhile they are almost 7 ft tall and should be able to dunk on a 10 ft hoop ... raise the hoop size and see how many players will start to suck lol but i guess itll be to boring

Yea, don't know about Rondo being the best PG. He can definitely dish the rock but his defense can be suspect at times. He takes too many chances to get steals that often lead to easy baskets for the other side. Right now, there should be no argument that CP3 is the best PG in the league. I agree with Kobe still being the best 2 guard. At C I would want Howard. Guy is a beast on defense. Bynum is a close second but he just doesn't try hard enough yet. Aldridge from Port can't be on the list because he doesn't grab enough boards. Right now, best PF in the game is K Love and obviously LBJ at SF. This is the Dream Team I wanna see:

PG CP3
SG Kobe
C Dwight
PF Lebron
SF Durant

yeah the league is gettin smaller now so lebron at the pf position i guess would work .. id take him over durant though

[adila1401]

Blake Griffin can be potentially legit in a few years..He is very athletic, I just don't understand the no calls and everyone's fascination with him though..HE COMMINTS AN OFFENSIVE FOUL EVERYTIME HE DUNKS OVER SOMEONE...Just watch any of his big dunks on youtube, he leads with his arm pushing the defender back almost everytime... Oh, and he isn't a very good rebounder..I'll take Kevin Love over him anyday, Love can shoot the 3s, consistant jumper, makes his free throws and most importantly gets rebounds

[EmpireMaker]

Griffin is overrated GARBAGE !!!!

[sando]

Kevin Love is pretty overrated too

Wow - you obviously know nothing about basketball, love is without doubt the premier PF in the league...

[jsmithj88]

Love should try playing some defense and quit worrying about padding his rebounding stats.

rebounding and defense go hand in hand .........
shud dirk play more defense and stop worrying about hitting fadeaway jumpers?
actually he shud .......

[jsmithj88]

blake griffin is not a star player, the dude was pushed by the nba to be a star
they basically gave him the slam dunk title and his kia dunk was an embarassment

[You mad bro]

we know he isnt a star player .. im just wondering why the nba gives him all that credit for just being able to dunk the ball ... its like baseball with the home runs now a days ... u hit 45 home runs in baseball but bat 200 ur a star in a lot of peoples eyes

Dunk r what sells. That's why the NBA promotes him so much. Nobody wants to see K Love grabbing rebounds to promote the game. Although I think K Love is the best PF in the game now.
