Does anybody else see Blake as basically Amare Stoudemire? Not exact replicas but very similiar.

I have not been that impressed with him following his performance in his first game.
His offensive game is clearly lacking and he's not a very good defender.
I thought he would be a little more ready to make a positive impact coming out but of course he could still improve.
As for Love, he's OK (love the hustle REBs and shooting touch), but while both of these guys put up stats, neither are winning players at this point (scored on too easily).

Griffin. He's a better defender now and has the tools to be an elite defender, something Love doesn't have. Both are just incredibly awesome though.

The pre-injury/more athletic/less offensively skilled version of Stoudemire yes.
edit- And yeah fenikz is right a MUCH better rebounder.

He is a better rebounder, but they are both pretty bad on defense and I don't see him getting better at that on the Clippers

Wouldn't it depend on your team? I mean if you have chuckers everywhere, you go Love. If you need a go to scorer, Griffin.
Overall I'd take Griffin because he impresses me and has only been around ten games. But you won't find me knocking Love anywhere.

Rose is doing exactly what Monta was last year. Playing incredible ball, but absolutely no help around him. Good thing Booz is coming...they are going to be crazy good if Rose stays this aggressive.

Wes Matthews is on fire to be fair. I love me some Wes Matthews. The Blazers were really smart to overpay slightly for him. He's going to make them look like geniuses.

The Nuggets need a three right about now, and JR Smith would probably be pretty helpful...

Blake Griffin is a ******* freak, I'd take him over most PFs in the league.

8th in the league in FT/FGA. No one on that list comes even close to Gallo's FT shooting ability...now if only we had a legit 3 point sniper who could come off the bench and hit a three cold to free Gallo up to drive more...good that would be sweet, Gallo wouldn't be stuck in the corner as often forcing up 3s instead of driving to establish a rhythm and then start dropping daggers, chandler wouldn't be throwing up so many 3s that he can't hit and we'd do a better job of keeping Amare from having to create from too far away. One Kapono type off of the bench and a few more weeks together and the knicks could be a real team with Gallo and Amare a scary duo that combines for 45-50 a night.

Gallo and Amare are not going to average 25 points a piece.
Amare has averaged 25 or more twice in 9 years on a much higher scoring, better team than the Knicks.
And Gallo isn't all of a sudden going to improve his ppg by 10+ points this year.
It doesn't matter if they add another shooter or whatever. Pls stop Knick fans.

Kings have finally got Donte Greene back in the starting lineup, too bad about Luther Head...Please run with this Mr. Westphal
Dally/JT
Cousins/Landry
Greene/Casspi
Cisco/Beno
Evans/Beno
2 good ball handlers on the floor to start, potential lockdown defender in Greene, and i really think that frontcourt of Cousins and big sam can work. ******** of offense coming off the bench, too bad none of them can defend to save themselves

I'll say it: Russell Westbrook > Rajon Rondo.
young PGs
1. Chris Paul
2. Deron Williams
3. Derrick Rose
4. Russell Westbrook
5. Rajon Rondo

NBA TV's analysts are god-awful. Man Sheryl Miller is annoying.

This. Gallo is shooting 36% from the floor. I'm sick of hearing about how he's anything more than a good 4th option.

LeBron James' AST% is fourth in the league, behind only Paul, Nash and Rondo. Yeah, he is the Heat's PG. I can't wait until they get Mike Miller back and can go big with James, Wade, Miller, Bosh and Ilgauskas.

I've said it before: the Celtics play up and down to their competition. They should not be losing to a Durant-less Thunder at home.

Since when do big assist numbers make you able to run an offense for 35+ mins a night?
EDIT: although admittedly he's probably their best option.
