Ok does Blake Griffin stay another year

[Kangaroo]

I know the Sooners got ruffed up today but that was do the other players on the team Griffin was an out right stud 23 points 9-12 shooting and 16 rebounds and 6 of this rebounds on the offensive glass

He's the number one pick. He's gone.

 

[Yeagermeister]

He'll be wearing a Grizzlies uni next season :crossed:

He's the number one pick. He's gone.

No reason for him to stay.

 

[Danny White]

I think he's gone, but I don't think it's a mortal lock. It wouldn't be the biggest shock in the world to me if he stayed.

Bradford probably would have been the #1 pick if he'd have gone pro, and he surprised me, so I'm on my guard with this one.

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

way he seemed to be crying when he was taken out of the game tends to imply he knows it is over

total domination by the Heels in the tournament so far.

Oklahoma City Thunder...He aint moving far from home

That's probably closer to the truth. What ever pick the top level talent drops to the second level that's where the Grizz pick will land. It happens to us every year. :bang2:

Nope, a Wizards uniform... and he'll be PERFECT for what they need... get him, and get Arenas back, and watch the resurgence of what Tony Kornheiser calls "les Boulez"...

To tell you the truth, though, I could live with Hasheem Thabeet as a second choice... best shotblocker I've seen since Dikembe Mutombo, and I have a hunch his offensive game will improve as he learns more about the game... this kid is very, very raw...

So, who to root for, the 25 points/15 rebounds power forward, or the 15 points/12 rebounds/5 blocked shots center??

No doubt that Griffin is a stud...

See my post above

That's how the draft always works out for us

You think he'll be staying AND transferring??

Had to fix the quote otherwise it wouldn't make sense...

[DFWJC]

No. He's gone. Anytime you are going to picked in the top 3 or so, you'd be foolish to stay. He can get his degree still if he wants to...and hopefully someday he will.

Winner winner chicken dinner.

You think after the normal post season and combine scrutiny, Bradford would be the overall #1 pick? Some say he would be the 3rd or 4th QB taken.

Enjoyed the movie "21"

That's usually the way it goes for the Wiz, too... but I'm thinking with the way they just got decimated with injuries this year, they're about due to catch a break...

Like I said, Griffin or Thabeet, either one would make the Wizards a much better team...

To be fair, nearly ANYTHING would make the wizards a much better team.

more important question will be if jordan drafts another unc reject for his team in tyler hansborough (in the 2nd round)

Thabeet's offensive game won't improve much. He's very limited; he's going to be a garbage point scorer much like Dikembe was, Tyson Chandler is, etc.

I also question his playing strength. Granted Blair is a beast, but Thabeet really got pushed around by him. He's going to have to get a bit stronger. But his rebounding and shot blocking will translate to the pro game. He has an incredible sense of timing on his shot blocks. In that sense, he kind of reminds me of Tyrus Thomas (albeit, Thomas is a lot shorter and at a different position.... but both have excellent timing).

Memphis didn't do themselves any favors tonight by beating the Wiz.

I'm with Bear on this one... I want to see him in a Wizards uniform.

I think with Blake and with a healthy Arenas, that's a damn good team next year. Be fun to go watch them play a few times. Also, I want him out of the West, so I can root for him without worrying about any rivalries with my Spurs.
