It goes both ways. Banging in the post takes a toll on Griffin too. Gotta evolve sometimes.

No doubt. But it shouldn't become the foundation of his game like it is for Aldridge. The rest of the league is praying they keep seeing more Blake Griffin the jumpshooter. Plus, big men tend to get really comfortable when they add a jumpshot. Too comfortable often times.

Rasheed Wallace is the all time example. Guy had an unstoppable postgame early in his career. By the end he was just a chucker. Its a lot easier to just jack em up from the outside, instead of establishing post position all night, so guys fall in love with it.
