    blake griffin is not averge rookie.. blake griffin is not even the average player.. wall has nothin on griffin

  • Boobr

    I don’t give a crap about Wall and Griffin. Not yet. I need to see if they can be really good after 2-3 seasons.

    uhh…. well most basketball fans and those who anything about basketball at all can plainly tell that really now

    Blake Griffin ain’t even supposed to be a rookie if he got paid last year

  • http://google c_cantrell

    ^KING..
    uh can u justify what your saying or u jus a moron? i think your jus a moron lol.. since he didnt play in a single game last year and started his career this year then that means he is a rookie bud

    John Wall all day. Kentucky all day

    Blake Griffin all day. Every day. No other way.

    and im not liking the whole john legend thing.. cant steal that away from larry legend and this kid is jus a rookie

  • http://google c_cantrell

    ok look thru the first 23 games of the year for griffin and the first 14 for wall here are how the stats stack up
    *Griffin.20.0ppg-11.7rpg-2.8apg-0.8spg-0.7bpg
    *Wall….17.4ppg–3.4rpg-9.1apg-2.4spg-0.5bpg
    looks to me like blake griffin is the clear cut number one to win rookie of the year.. walls is nice but griffin is just on a completely different level

  • http://google c_cantrell

    Heres how Griffin is doin thru 25 games..
    *20.3ppg…11.9rpg…3apg…0.8spg…0.7bpg
    and also note worthy was his performance against dwight howard and the orlando magic..
    *27 point
    *16 rebounds
    *5 assists
    *1 steal
    *1 block
    pretty impressive game against the 2 time defending defensive player of the year and one the best defensive teams in the league.. dude is the future of the nba

    They call him John Legend because they are referencing the singer named John Legend. They aren’t making a Larry Bird reference. Retard

  • http://google c_cantrell

    *21.2ppg…12.4rpg…3.2apg…0.6bpg…0.8spg
    thats currently good for 17th in the league in scoring and 3rd in rebounding behind only rebound virtuoso kevin love and usual rebounding leader howard.. absolute beast
