Blake's got a sick handle for a PF, a nice post game, and is a very good rebounder, along with being one of the best finishers in the league. Everybody says that all he can do is dunk which is real ignorant.

All three guys are on the cover. There are no separate covers this year.

I would also like to know how averaging 20 points and 10 boards makes you overrated? Let me guess, because sportscenter only shows his dunk highlights?

Blake is having injury problems already, before he even develops a true go to move..

Amare is still pretty good? Whoa. I hope he bounces back but he was awful last year.

Blake doesn't have a go to move on the post but he makes athletic moves spinning, duping, and mixing in his jump hook.

HowDareU. I've seen him go coast to coast a lot of times. He'll face up a guy and start doing some crazy isomotion like moves. So wrong.

My favorite move he does is the up and under. He has some nice "feetwork".

People who say all Blake does his dunk simply don't watch Clipper basketball games. He averaged what, 21 and 11 in his rookie year with basically nobody around him? He didn't do that from 'mosgoving' his opponents 10 times a game. In fact, there was one game against Indiana where he scored 47, he dunked it twice. If you watch this it's an example of what he can do, he's got great touch and balance, great ball control for a big man.

I'm a huge fan of Blake Griffin, and not because he's a 'superstar' I'll be the first one to see he's far from it and he's got a lot of things he needs to work on. I'm a fan of his because of this, I like watching players grow and prove people wrong. Develop there game, it's all fine to say your favourite player is Kobe because he's one of the best to ever play but that's not me.

The best thing about Blake Griffin, is he's CLEARLY got so much to work on and a lot of weakness', yet he averages these numbers with very limited moves, imagine what he could be like with a jumpshot. With post moves. All I'm saying is statistics don't lie, get your facts straight before saying things like all he can do is dunk etc.

lets see...avg: 21.5 pts, 11.5 rebs, shoots over 52% fg, help lead team to play offs...hows he over hyped? he's showed a vast array of skills from hamdling the ball to a decent 10-15 jumper which is only goin to get better.his only true weakest is his free throw shooting at 60%... ppl need to stop hating on this dude and be "great"ful he's come long considering the skill talent of the nba player has diminished for the past few yrs

2K ridin' Blake Griffin a bit hard ain't they? lol Dude is no where near as nice as Vince Carter was in his prime. Not sure there has been a better dunk contestant/champion than that dude.

yea, blake griffin is amare stoudemire BEFORE amare had that surgery early in his career. They have a very similar type of game, they can shoot that 15 footer, they are great finishers in traffic, they are terrific screen setters, but they share the same flaws as well. Neither is a good defender, nor a good rebounder, nor particularly versed in a post game. They both have incredible athleticism, finishing instincts, and a knack for making big plays on offense. I think blakes career will be slightly beter than amare's, but not substantially better....
