Ibaka vs Blake Griffin Who would you rather have?

[ManBearPig]

You acting like Ibaka isn't a quality starter or something... Just because he isn't putting up as many points doesn't mean he isn't one of the more valuable players in the league. He plays his role well.

Plus Blake hasn't really lived up to his status just yet. The highlights are cool, but he not impacting the games like that. It took CP3 to make the that franchise really relevant again, and even with 2 all-pros they were only a 5th seed. You need depth in the NBA.

this is pretty much the debate

Blake is "negative comment" so that why i think Ibaka is better.



Serge cant do anything but block shots and hustle. I dont even put dude over anderson varejao and we are comparing him with Blake?

Blake IS the Clippers along with Chris Paul unlike Serge who is a just a complementary player

The question is 'Who would you rather have as the starting PF on your team?'

So of course the answers going to be different depending on your team. nikkas are mad as fukk

nobody said "my team has such and such so i'm picking Ibaka"

its "Blake aint shyt so Ibaka is my pick"

i think is bullshyt but Ibaka cant even rebound over 8 a game with no other great rebounders on his team.

If you switched Ibaka and Blake right now, the Clippers would still make the playoffs and be better defensively.



The Thunder would've probably lost to the Spurs with Blake out there.The Spurs would've left him wide open and he wouldn't have been able to knock down that mid range J like Ibaka.



As far as entertainment value Blake>>>>Ibaka.....he makes for a good highlight

If Blake was on OKC Durant wouldn't need to be their leading rebounder.
And if Ibaka would have been on the Clippers Chris Paul would have probably crumbled from having to carry even more of the load than he already had to.

WHO BELIEVES THAT IBAKA IS ACTUALLY 22?

Give me Ibaka by a long shot. Young Bill Russell. That guy is going to be a dominant force anywhere in the league. Blake is Vince Carter/Shawn Kemp status. You can win 'ships with Ibaka

If yu wanna build a championship team yu need that defensive anchor. Ibaka is amazing cuz of the fact that he shows out in really big games.

 

[Jutt]

nikkas get blinded by Blakes dunks...Ibaka affects the game moreso on defense than anything...but i dont expect half you nikkas to acknowledge that

 

[Loose]

ibaka can't even put the ball on the floor and he better than blake? that's batshyt crazy. this is some repugnant shyt and i love serge game

The overrating of ibaka is comedy, even he himself admits playin with Perkins allows him to roam as a Weakside defender

 

[SubLyminalz]

ibaka much cheaper better on defense and steps up in big games.

u make it seem like Blake is making Rashard Lewis money

Blake is getting 5.7 million right now... 5.7 million for a 20/10 player is too much?

Ibaka's defense allowed Dirk to average like 35ppg on like 60% shooting last year.

dude wouldnt start for like 15 other teams while Blake is the best PF in the NBA right now behind Dirk, Love, and Josh Smith

Him stepping up is more of a "bonus" while Blake's is mandatory.

As people, we do not pay any attention to Ibaka's off games because the THunder always win.

His defense isnt that good.

Stop mistaking dude with Dikembe Mutombo

 

[tonyclifton]

ibaka until griffin can shoot

 

[Long Live The Kane]

Ibaka just off the strength of me not wanting to pay Blake Griffin max money and be the core of my team...I'd rather have Ibaka as a piece and pay somebody else to be my franchise player

good luck getting Durant/WestBrook or LeBron/Wade


only 2 out of 28 other teams have that kind of options.

you dont think Chris Paul would want to trade to the Clippers if Serge was there instead of Blake.......

 

[Polygraph steez]
