The esteemed Mr. Griffin had 12 pts and 1 rebound last night in a loss to the Raptors. I guess Ibaka is just that much better than him. Detroit has lost 6 of their last 7. Griffin is shooting .388 with 6 rebounds and 4.4 fta.

I would just love for Detroit to pass Miami (now 3 games ahead), but Griffin just can't play under pressure. He just can't. This is a 20 game run of high pressure games. Can Stan VG figure out how to coach Griffin into actually playing well?

Miami plays the 6ers tonight, so we can hope for a loss there.

I appreciate you posting these stats, but I feel that you're giving a one-sided view of Blake's performance by omitting some other stats. For example, how many points is he averaging as a Piston? How many minutes? I'm not saying that he is playing well in Detroit, but when you list only low FG%, FTA, and rebounds, it feels to me like you're cherry-picking.

How do you look up his stats just as a Piston? Espn.com lists the whole season and the past 10 games, but I don't know a simple way to look at just his Detroit numbers.

I was trying to remember if that was actually the guy who played on the Suns for a cup of coffee.

I am pretty sure he was paid more than that.

Those who felt he was on an "upward trajectory" because his February numbers were good may want to reevaluate.
