Why does Blake Griffin get blocked so easily?

[dubeta]

The guy is 6'10 and can jump out the gym, but for some reason he's so easy to block? I've never seen someone his height so easy to block

He isn't good enough with his fakes. Needs to do more head and pump fakes when contested rather than just try to out jump and shoot over people. Defenders contest most of his shots because they know he rarely fakes.

Funny how there is pics and gifs of Ibaka above. Dude is Blake's personal bitch given how much he has owned him in all their match ups.

For every time he's gotten blocked he's dunked over like 30 people in between...

Everyone gets blocked. But I do agree that he needs better fakes. And off topic but if he learned how to roll after screens (which he doesn't set well either), he'd be even more of a monster. He usually sets a half ass screen and then stands where he is.

On top of having short arms, I think he put on some weight and lost a bit vertical since rookie since. Also mentality wise he isn't trying to jump out of the gym and posterize everybody every time he goes to the rim. He said before that this kind of style took a toll on his body and just wasn't sustainable.

Because white guys have a higher blocked per fga.
