John Wall and Blake Griffin Have their Fans Excited

The last two number one overall selections in the last two NBA drafts were Blake Griffin to the Clippers in 2009, and John Wall to Kentucky in 2010.

So far, both have rejuvenated fan bases that were so used to seeing boring play, and few winning seasons. Griffin missed all of last season with an injury, thus making him eligible for the 2010 rookie of the year award. His play this season has been spectacular, showing off an athleticism that is rarely found in players his size. His physical and fast play has been compared to Karl Malone.

John Wall has made Wizards fan happy once more, after last season’s complete failure, highlighted by the Gilbert Arenas gun incident which got him suspended for the most of the season.

There is no doubt the Washington Wizards are Wall’s team, and his excellent play so far has made him an instant town favorite.

Wall is the complete package at point guard, and is one of many young and talented Wizards players.

Both John Wall and Blake Griffin have made their respective teams competitive, and very exciting to watch. In these tough economic times, it is important for teams to have young, talented players, who make the ticket prices worth every penny.

Wall and Griffin are two players anyone would pay to see, and will surely be the top two candidates for the rookie of the year award.
