Why is the clippers game the one that is being broadcast? Every time I have to watch a Blake Griffin make a post move I cry at the poor fluidity he shows. Or I watch him dunk.... and the announcers get on their knees for him because OMG WHAT A DUNK BLAKE GRIFFIN IS GOD LOOK AT THE DUNK OMG. it's still two points. Sad thing is without CP3 the Clippers are still a bottom feeder Blake Griffin or not... Can't say the same thing about Aldridge because he made the playoffs without Lillard/Roy.
Griffin's post moves were dramatically better last year than the years before, and he elevated his game during the stretch when Cp3 was out. I don't like him either, but the guy is pretty damn good.
I agree to a point.. where he actually had a couple post moves to go to last year. where years past he had no clue... however those post moves looked like freshman in high school trying to post up their father. I'm not sure if I agree he was the only one who stepped up(which isn't what you said but that's what the national media kept on about) during cp3's absence... Griffin was a reason but the clippers had more talent than just him. Clippers still go as far as CP3 can take them. Blake Griffin "stepping up" or not.
Honestly I don't think that there is a dunk Griffin can do, that Barton cannot. Barton should be in the dunk contest, but for whatever reason big names are more important than big skill.
I tweeted that Barton's dunking ability alone should have had him ranked higher on espns top list, but it wasn't "vine" enough for their tastes, nothing came of it.
If Rudy made it into the dunk contest with his "Vote Me" video maybe will can come up with something.
That's what I'm hoping. Will gets a few PR people to get something going. Add that to his natural swagger and he'd be good for the dunk contest.
Will would def need to be in the welter weight division! But I think the peoples champ angle could work. Wear "Rocky" shorts while doing his dunks?
SHEEEEEEEEEIT! I hate Blake, but don't take anything away from him that he has earned. Dunking and dunking hard on people is what he CAN do well! Barton has never dunked OVER anybody in his career if I can remember. Dunking ON somebody is a whole other level. Sent from my Baller-Ass 5.5" iPhone 6+......... FAMS
Yeah, right below jumping over a car, right? Barton could, and probably would put on a better exhibition than Griffin.
That was simply lame. He jumped from the basket side lines of the free throw circle and actually didn't jump over a car. he jumped over the fender of a KIA. By the way a KOREAN made KIA. Will should jump over an American made truck or at least a Chevy Camaro. Mustang?
