I just spent the day with him in San Francisco on Monday. All I can say is wow. The physical tools are amazing and the workout he goes through everyday is the most grueling I've ever seen. Griffin looks like he's training to be a Navy SEAL. However, what was really impressive was the basketball part with former Spurs head coach Bob Hill. He's much more skilled offensively than you think. Excellent ball handler and nice stroke with some three point range. And he's a nice, grounded kid with a very cool family. I was super impressed.

Just think
He’s working out hard – even though he knows already that he’s going to be the #1 pick….
This kid is special. I hope the Basketball Gods smile down on Abe and all the Bullets fans.
Bullets Forever - where "Dagger ! " happens......
Hurry up - let's draft him...
And then make Andray Blatche, JaVale McGee and Nick Young follow him around all day long….doing what he does.
Bullets Forever - where "Dagger ! " happens......
That was my first thought as well
I love hearing how hard he works. The young guys need that.
You know you'll get devoured by Cheaney, Wallace, and Juwan Howard.
Can someone somehow get Mike James to post that quote on his twitter?
Maybe get him to post it on JaVales’s twitter for the other youngsters to see

My only minor, minor concern about Griffin is something that I have absolutely no evidence to support: Over the past twenty years following professional and Olympic sports, we all have learned to be leery of athletes who physically dominate their sports, who are “physical freaks,” when reporters like Ford say that, “the workout he goes through everyday is the most grueling I’ve ever seen,” etc.
Still would take him at #1 in a heartbeat, though.
It's not my doing Truth
I want Rubio.

No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....
