Oklahoma's Blake Griffin

I have watched at least 6 of his games this season including at the tourney. He is a beast inside just as others say.

I rate him highly and if he was in the same draft as Derrick Rose and Michael Beasley, I'd take Griffen over them both.

He does it all, scores, plays D and plays as part of a team. Pity his side was not as deep as UNC - they did look good 'eh with a healthy Ty Lawson!

Most of all he is a good and well-grounded person. Have seen a few of his interviews and he is very modest and takes it all in his stride.

He will be the consensus 2009 NCAA Division 1 player of the year, and definitely be drafted #1.

I think talk of the draft being weak is pure dribble. There may not be as many "stars", but thre is certainly depth. It is even possible if Mills nominate for example, he may even be pushed to the second round! Now you tell me of a scout who would not draft Mills and put him in ther best 12? There would not be many.

With the amount of top notch talent in the previous draft, i think having a high pick this year is very important. The talent level is just not anywhere near as high.

Blake may be benefitting from this.

Also- media are bias because praising the next big thing sells more than reality.

Agents are always planting opinions to try and create a higher profile for their clients.

But what if the guy really is that good?

I would be interested to hear what non-bias hoops sa people think....coz i haven't seen him at all....
