Good question

Griffin for me

Griffin for sure. Griffin can land me super stars. Love might not be able to because of his style of play (not flashy and doesn’t catch headlines.) So in a sense, I want to sell tickets (like Aschburner) and also be able to have a player that FA’s have an attractive appeal playing next to.

Griffin is a beast and Love is the Stat man so bought are good.

Fans would related more to Griffin because of his dunks and amazing plays and
Love is a work horse with no flash. So if i’m an owner Griffin has similar numbers
both puts more butts in the chair, so it would be Griffin.

Can you go wrong with either?

Both have substance. While Griffin is athleticism and style KLove is consistency and fundamentals. I feel more comfortable with the game on the line with the ball in KLove’s hands.

What is not to like about a 25/14 fella? He still has plenty of potential, is young and signed for less than max.

yeah both are pretty good

I really dig Love’s basketball IQ and fundamentals. Not that Blake is bad in those areas but I hope he can improve in those areas rather quickly.
But I am happy with BG.

No, it's the Clip Show!
