Why is Griffin bullying the Spurs frontcourt to a degree that Lebron has never been able to.

Blake is true PF. Lebron has the size of a PF but plays like a SF. He also doesn't like contact. He can post smaller players really good, but posting bigger just as strong guys not as good.

This is why LeBron stays healthy. He prefers to play the game in a way that is less physically taxing.

Except he does bully them.. won't get a chance to do so this post-season, however.

This is true ... to add to it, he also takes games off as evidenced the last couple of seasons. Furthermore, he has not played a single 82 game season in his career.

GOAT did it 9 times even once as a Wizard.

Blake is maybe just an inch to inch and a half taller and 5-10 pounds heavier at the moment...

Their weights were pretty similar last season around february when Lebron was fresh off that midseason cycle...

Prime Lebron (07-10) weight was maybe 5-10 pounds heavier than Blake

You mean lebron is smart and conscience about his long term playing health?

TMZ has gone from our celebrity gossiper to a Kobe stan/LeBron hater. Very disappointing

Griffin is one of the strongest players in the league. That's why.

Very different types of players. Do you compare all other players based on size alone too?

or knows that it is better to take a few games off in the regular season as compared to taking a 2 year mini retirement.
