Winning. They are more valuable to winning. Griffin is more valuable to any NBA franchise in terms of dollars.

But he's not a role player. That's someone like Derek Fisher and Rick Fox. He's a key player.
I said a "star role player" and you took offense at the 'role player' part. Hell of a player but he's not putting butts in the seats= STAR ROLE PLAYER

I hear you.. I don't know what to think tbh. I want to see how he plays when he gets healthy but if he can't give us anything come post season its yet another year gone down the drain with this core. Everybody thought it was DJ but I'm hearing Blake is the root of the goofy/soft/frat boy mentality that plagues the team. I wanted Blake to retire with the Clipps but I don't know. This is dangerous waters here but I'm kinda done with player stanning- its what's best for the team:mjcry:
That nikka really ain't improved like that either. I mean shyt, everyone is looking like New Orleans without Griffin. The offense is flowing. CP3 putting up HOF GOAT efficiency for a PG again, Jordan playing good on offense. Redikk being a key player on offense and defense. shyt just working again. With Griffin, it ain't even exciting like it used to be. :mjcry:

I'm pretty sure DJ is more goofy than Blake. Lowjey, Blake may have some kind of alcohol problem. Its way too many instances where I've seen pics or vids of him intoxicated. You just don't see star athletes in the position Ive seen him in. Sonehow its been swept under the rug. I refuse to believe he punched ole boy sober.

But Doc is about to destroy the teams future. Blake will be a free agent soon, how do you think that will go :usure:

The term role player can be misused but from your take, I'll agree.

I ain't mad at you breh. Don't take me negging Nati who's been on some shyt for this week and negging a shyt poster like Taxman as being mad at anyone here for the most part. They earned their neg. Nati for a week of shyt posting and Taxman for being a shyt poster.

With that said, Nati, you ain't garbage but you been garbage this week. I still respect you, but if I could, I'll neg you again.

I'm thinking this may be it its something we aren't seeing that's the only reason I could think of wanting to trade Blake problem is the other teams would know that also and than trying to package him with Lance though.

And at the end of the day Jeff Teague and Kemba Walker are still Tier II PGs

And Blake Griffen is still of more value than Al Horford/Paul Milsap.

But that's shyt posting

Some of it is on Doc.. His GM moves have been absolute sh*t and he destroyed Lob City. He kinda turned Blake into a jump shooter and his putting Austin above everything is bullsh*t. But yeah the offense is flowing but with Blake out we're still not good enough to beat the top dogs. I think Blake will switch up his game a bit/not be a ball stopper when he returns. He's watching the team play.

Agreed. You just the get the go from an owner much less new owner to trade a top 5 marketable player unless something is wrong like he wants to be traded or he's having too many personal demons. I mean shyt, look at all Harden's personal demons and Houston wouldn't dare trade him so you know something is up.

Blake may not return if they are really shopping him like this.

It's shyt posting breh. It might be seen as okay on message board but when I respect you as a poster, I expect much better. I expect constant quality. You tend to deliver quality but this week, I been like this with you posts:

Yeah DJ is a goofy dude but the whiny, no fight back, frat house sh*t might be all Blake. And you know they had to be sh*t faced when he broke his hand on the equipment manager. And I agree, what superstar player is breaking his hand in a fight with a team staffer. That makes no f*cking sense whatsoever:mindblown: I thought the Donald Sterling shennigans and bullsh*t f*ckery were over with. And he just now came up on a jump shot and he breaks his shooting hand??? This is a Judd Aptow- Adam Sandler movie breh. Ballmer is furious over this sh*t. Low key people were furious when Blake pulled the crotch/suck my cock joke with the towel kid last season

You don't have the talent to beat the top dogs but it's a really fukking good offense without Blake. Where your at, you are there already. You got championship talent. You just don't have championship fit. You gotta find a way to get the right fit. Maybe that's trading for Danilo, Jokic, Faried and Barton from Denver if they are willing to trade Gallo. But you got championship talent. Redikk is a championship role player. So is Jordan for the role he's in. CP3 is a top 3-5 all time PG. You only got one odd ball.

Then again, Denver probably didn't offer half of that. Like someone said, no way Denver is gutting their team for a rental. No fukking way. LA probably offered Denver that.

Lance has been looking decent again. Let him get more minutes than Austin.

The offense is flowing because the streak shooters are doing what they always do. Make shots in December and January. Every yr its the same sh1t. Then in the playoffs they all shoot below their season averages. And its really 2 guys. Jamal and Redikk. I don't trust either when it counts. :francis:
