re: Magic Johnson's opinion on Russell Westbrook:

I take it that Magic isn't a Chris Paul fan.
I wouldn't say Chris Paul's game is very unique, so I guess that's why Magic didn't include him.
I'd say CP3's game is the best of all NBA PG's and I'm sure Magic would probably agree. But that doesn't make it unique.
Lebron is the only player that can play all 5 positions and guard all 5 positions. That's unique
KD is nearly 7' tall and is the second player ever to join the 180 club while scoring 28+ ppg. That's unique
Kobe is Kobe. Kobe's play style is as close to Jordan's as anyone in the association. That's unique in today's league. (NOTE: Kobe isn't the GOAT and never will be)
Westbrook is an unbelievable scorer who can absolutely take over games and dominate as a 2nd option. He's a 2 guard that can dish, and dish well. He can drive with unbelievable speed and he is very physical. That's unique. You can argue that Rose is in that category, but obviously not this year considering he hasn't played professional basketball in about 12 months.
Blake Griffin is unbelievably athletic and can throw down some ridiculous highlight dunks every night. I guess that's why Magic included him, but I honestly disagree with this pick. I'd say he belongs in the CP category in terms of uniqueness in his game. He's a solid PF (who is way overrated by ESPN) who is absurdly athletic, but his game isn't exactly unique, just a better version of many other players' games.

I just lost respect for Magic Johnson

Where did I say that?
All I'm saying is there are much more unique players than him in the NBA

You seem really butthurt that people dont think Griffin is anything more than a highlight dunk kind of a guy.
There are EASILY 50 players I would take over him if I was starting a team.
Probably more like 75

Don't tell his stats or his efficiency statistics. They didn't get the memo.

Dwight is so much better in this case. And this is coming from someone that hates Dwight Howard

Somewhat agree and somewhat disagree.
Blake is a bitch, but Dwight is the ultimate softy in the association this year when you factor in his physical attributes.
I don't like BG at all and I hate DH.

Griffin's accomplishments speak for themselves.

Getting Anthony Davis was very worth everything. I don't even care about EG. AD was worth it.

You seem mad...like REALLY mad.
Dont ban me for saying that though

I agreed with everything you said except that. Melo can do all 5 either way.

The blake griffin quote is dumb. Dude can sky obviously, but come on.
To put him in the league with Kobe, Lebron and KD?
He must be delusional from the AIDS
