The Griff haters won't talk about our draft picks, because they don't want to talk about how great they have been.

It's intellectually dishonest.


Ok, let’s talk!

Jaxson and NAW are still TBD but I’m hoping to eat crow and signals are positive.

Murphy is nice, but again, he hasn’t even played an NBA game yet.

Zion is a gimme and crediting him for that would be actual intellectual dishonesty.

So not bad, but three seasons in and we’re still waiting on the first class of players to be net positive impact guys.

But none of those players are what I would call franchise altering picks at this point, or expect to be(maybe Hayes, MAYBE, if he literally takes an AD like leap in his development).

Furthermore, it’s basically what Trajan was brought in for. Something tells me the quality of our draft picks would not materially change if Griff was fired and Trajan and the rest of the staff remained. So the argument doesn’t exactly hold a ton of weight with me.

And TBC I’m not 100% out on Griff, but if I’m grading his first 3 seasons across all aspects of team building, it’s between a D+ and a C+. And that doesn’t cut it as a small market in this league.

You can't have it both ways. He can't get all of the blame for all of the bad stuff and none of the credit for the good stuff.

He's at the top. He should get credit for things that go well and blame for things that go poorly.

A lot of Griffin's basketball moves have been ok (last year was mostly a disaster).

Its obvious that he's not connecting with people on a personal level and that he's sort of a con artist/used car salesman.

He wants to be Ted Lasso but Ted Lasso actually cares about people.
