I'll give Blake this off-season b/c he was hurt...but looking at Jordan, he's added a jump hook and some nice little post moves, dropping his shoulder and a quick spin.

If you remember last year there was a crazy stat that basically all of his points came off of dunks or and he never scored outside of teh paint.

Blake better do whatever he did and catchup next year :usure:

blake has the drive and the motivation. he's just constantly hampered by injuries. its like all his effort goes to playing in the game, he never gets time to improve his game because he's nursing his injuries.

DeAndre turning into a beast tho

deandre is the key to their success..... if he finally reaches his potential then the clipps become title contenders. he can should basically be the tyson chandler of the west, but with more offensive game. if he can anchor the defense and rebound the clipps will be tough to beat. they have a top 3 frontline along with memphis and LA when he does what hes capable of

I would argue blake has developed his jumper a bit, certainly better than its ever been. But I agree Deandre looks like a new player this season

Blake flops too much, over exaggerates every hit to his face/head area and is inconsistent

Son needs to step his game up he reminds me of young vc except carter had a consistent jumper

Deandre improved drastically he makes the clippers a dangerous squad

Well he may or may not need elbow surgery in the offseason, so ...

Then Blake's other problem is Vinny and.Chris Paul. His gm and skillz dont fit the Clips offense. Blake could run the offense at times with his.ballhandling and passing like KG back in the day, but Vinny isnt imaginative and CP dominates the ball.

He.should probably demand a trade.

But he's still better than DJ, lets not get crazy:usure:

blake griffin needs to pattern his game after david west, period....he cant have a good postgame because his arms are too small, so he will get his shyt blocked anyways.....he needs to have that fadeaway jumper david west uses, also literally master that midrange game, and things will open up for him and Deandre.

btw im proud of Deandre like foreal that shyt is inspiring.

its a different game now though breh....I think for blakes role on the clippers, he would be more effective playing a david west role, so he can still get his 20 and dj can still get his also.
