Blake Griffin has single handily turned me into a Clippers fan. The guy is straight-up one of the most entertaining players in the league right now. Kobe, Lebron/Wade/Bosh (HA! he wishes), Durant, and Griffin. These guys get fans out of their seats in a hurry and they do it on a nightly basis.
I'm always astounded at how a man at 6'10, 251 lb can run and spin like Griffin does. The majority of power forwards aren't of that athletic calibre. This guy is fast! Watch how quickly the man moves up and down the court before slamming a dunk on some poor defenders face! I'm not calling out other PF's in the league but come on, admit it, this guy is boss.
After his injury last season I admit I thought he was going to be a bust. But man oh man was I proved wrong. With Baron Davis making a comeback and fresh off a 16 assist game against the Knicks the Clippers are gaining notoriety across the league despite their current 20-32 record. Can't wait to see how many other defenders get "posterized" by Griffin this season and hopefully next year into the playoffs. Go Clippers!
