Right or wrong, I’m expecting big things from Blake Griffin for the 2018-19 season. Not quite this big, but big nonetheless.
One of the more meaningful tricks of Griffin’s trade includes the capacity to initiate offense. Whether it’s generating his own looks or within a team concept, Griffin’s ball-handling can alleviate some of the responsibilities often assigned to Reggie Jackson.
In theory, it sounds easy but the application, like most things basketball, isn’t so cut and dry. We know Jackson can be effective with the ball in his hands but how will he react to Pistons’ possessions governed by Griffin?
