Kevin Love or Blake Griffin at power forward?

So, most of you that follow the NBA and its players statistics would immediately say Kevin Love is the better power forward. Love averages 25 points, 14 rebounds, and two 3-pointers a game versus Griffin puts up 21 points, 11 rebounds, and zero 3-pointers a game. So you would assume both Love and Griffin are willing their teams to win, right? Wrong. Love's Minnesota Timberwolves are 9-11 and 11th in the west, as compared to Griffin's LA Clippers are 11-6 and 3rd in the west. But does this mean Love is a huge stat guy and not much of a winner? No. There is a big difference in the supporting casts of each team. The Clippers have two all-stars in Chris Paul and Chauncey Billups to round out their top 3, versus the Wolves have the young, questionable Michael Beasley and Ricky Rubio.

But what it comes down to is whether Griffin elevates his team with his energy and high flying dunks more than Love does with his steady 3-pointers and fundamental play. I am slightly unsure who I would want going forward, but I would give Griffin the edge at this point because of the intangibles he brings to lift his team to victories.
