Someone really needs to tell me what makes Blake better than Love.

Definitely don't agree with it, but being flashy and getting more highlights on ESPN = better player in a lot of peoples minds.

I stand behind what I said.

Griffin is thought of the way he is by the public because of how much he is shown on ESPN.

Obviously there is a lot more to him than just flashy dunks, but his play is a little overrated by the national media. Not saying he isn't a great player because he is, but his worth is a little overstated imo.

unbelievable

idk, maybe im biased
but he had an amazing year last season

he has to be top 5. thats my gripe
i cant believe some of you dont think he's a top 5 PF. like, seriously guys? you do realize he's not a Laker right?

i really disagree with Love ahead of him, but I can live with it, at least immediately

he's top 10, but not top 5. i'd put him at like 6 or 7 in a top 10, he's not top 5 just yet tho IMO. it's nothing more then my opinion, it's just the way I feel about the situation. maybe it's because he dunked on two former knicks in one game while they were still knicks, but who knows? lmao jk. idc about that. but i meant everything else.

I think Griffin still has more to work on then Kevin Love, but I could definetly see by even the end of this coming season Blake being the #1 PF. Right now he still needs to work on his offensive game (post game, jump shot, only a 64% ft shooter) and defensive game (he should be averaging way more than just 0.6 blocks per game).

if LaMarcus learned how to rebound....

and im going a little OT, but what really bugs me is how Pau is labeled "soft"(no problem with it though, he is) but not LMA or Amare

their defense revolves around DeAndre Jordan though. these 2 are the perfect fit

DJ blocks everybody, Blake comes in and grabs the boards

Aldridge really took a step this year with his toughness, but I agree about Amare.

He doesn't get that label because of the dunks he throws down.

A racial thing imo.

Amare is soft, as NOLA said LaMarcus took a big step this year, he was soft up until last season. If you watched him multiple times this past season you should know you can no longer label him as "soft".

The only guy I would put Griffin over on this list so far is Pau Gasol. But thats because Pau sucked it up big time in the playoffs.

Love....better. Dirk...better. ZBo....better.

I take Love over Griffin if I'm building a fantasy basketball team. If it's real life, I'd much rather have Blake.
