The problem with what you say is, you are nitpicking.

I think he is probably the go to guy, I mean Chris Paul also. He's no MJ, Kobe, Durrant, .... but I would want him to have the ball at the end of the game. Unless they are in a FT shooting position, then ya hes worthless.

So your definition of a great player is he has to be classy?

But does his potential justify a call for more min?

When has Griffin lead a team to the playoffs without great guards around him?
K.
Even Al Jefferson has done that with a bunch of rookies, 2 year guards, and and Devin Harris at point.

Pfft.

Listen.
Last year was only his second year. WTF was Jefferson, Millsap, Favors, Kanter, and all the other power forwards/Centers doing in their second year?

I didn't say that, I said I didn't like them and they suck.
Which in other words means I don't like them.
I've always hated players that flop, bitch to the refs after every call, and bail on their respective franchises for so-called guaranteed championships.

Oh I don't know.... playing the best they could with subpar rookie guards that couldn't pass or shoot the ball.
This year is a different story, and it shows.
Kanter and Jefferson will eat Griffin alive this year, thanks to the spreading of the floor.

Yes I think he should see the court, but its hard when you have a really deep team with good players above him. I can't think of a player I would bench to put Burks over right at this second, probably later in the year but not right now. I am confident Burks will be playing 15+ a game by the all star break.

Didn't say that either.
I did say Jefferson lead the Jazz to the playoffs without any help from the guard line.
No Chris Paul, no Chauncy Billups, no Mo Williams, no Caron Butler, no shooting at all.....

C'mon man!!
You are just being ridiculous.
You are dogging Griffin because in his one year without Chris Paul, as a rookie, on the Clippers, didn't make the playoffs? But he gets no credit for going to the playoffs in his second year?

Jfferson didnt lead the Jazz no where. They won in spite of him. He played just well enough to not sink us, and barely keep us above five hundred.

I don't see how I'm being ridiculous.....
The guys always been surrounded by terrific shooting and passing guards, and this opens up his game ten fold.
If Jeremy Evans was the size of Blake Griffin, everyone would be talking him up to be an all-star too.
Oh wait..... no they wouldn't, because he's on the small market Jazz.

Oh please....
Jfferson was the Jazz's only reliable offense last year, besides an often disappearing Millsap, Harris, and Hayward.
