Because the Nets have recently fallen into a serious injury and isolation tide, the team has a number of main players have fallen, coach Nash had no choice but to reactivate the refrigerated Blake Griffin some time ago, and the Griffin who was able to wear the team again, did not disappoint the team, following the last game against the Raptors staged a "Rodman" style flying save, he played an excellent performance again in today's game against the 76ers, this time Griffin played 31 minutes, 7 of 16, He scored 17 points, 9 rebounds and 2 assists, including a key three-pointer to set the record for victory, and before that, he also created 3 key offensive fouls, making his already fragile body, once again severely damaged.
As of now, Griffin ranks first in the league with an average of 0.7 fouls per game, and he is followed by Lowry (0.6 times) and Beverley (0.5 times), but considering that Lowry's playing time this season has reached 34.3 minutes, Beverley also has up to 26.1 minutes, and It is indeed not easy for Griffin to play such a performance when he has only 21.6 minutes of playing time.
As a former high-profile Champion, Griffin in his peak to play for the Clippers, but also a flying super dunk, each game will be wonderful staged enough to be selected for the top 10 balls of the explosive dunks, as long as there is a chance, his first choice is always to show his dunk bag, not an ordinary layup, but it is also such an excessive consumption of his own physical functions, so that after switching to the Pistons, Griffin's two knees are overwhelmed, which also allows himself to fall off the altar of stars.
Fortunately, in the later stages of playing for the Clippers, Griffin began to intentionally increase his outside projection, practiced a fairly good three-point shot, but also made him in the absence of his own destructive power in the box, but also able to use the outside to create a threat to defenders, after switching from the Pistons to the Nets last season, Griffin once played a career rejuvenation performance, although only averaging 10 points, 4.7 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game, but 49.2% shooting percentage and 38.3% three-point shooting rate is the highest in recent seasons. After renewing the Nets on a base salary in the offseason, Griffin's form has seen a serious decline this season, with repeated outside projections and the defensive end not being able to keep up, allowing Nash to refrigerate it directly.
If it were not for the current Nets' shortage of personnel, Griffin may really have to sit on the bench this season, and this time it is reused, Griffin also tried to make himself more stable on the offensive end, and on the defensive end, he did not spare any effort, with full effort to block the super impact of the offensive players. It is true that the original nine days of moon-catching jumping has disappeared, but Griffin, who incarnated as a floor stream, saved the ball with falling to the ground again and again, so that the cool blue-collar workers would do the dirty work and contribute silently to the Nets.
So far, Griffin's average per game has plummeted to a career-worst 6.2 points and 4.9 rebounds, but this dismal statistic does not highlight Griffin's full commitment to the game. The self-redemption of these two games shows that Griffin really wants to keep himself in the NBA, and at the age of 32, he will not easily compromise with fate.
