I remember that quote, and will use it in the future when deciding if Griffin is prone to hyperbole or tells it like it is.
Patterson being as good as Edwards at some point in the future seems highly unlikely...
Perhaps Griffin is just saying what Patterson needs to hear, or just likes to be a hype man, he is just plain wrong about Patterson, or we have a great big reason to be excited.
It is hard to guess which, considering I can't remember Griffin ever talking to the media prior to that attention grabbing quote.
And weren't Griffin's comments more about Patterson's physical maturity than skills?
I might be mis-remembering, but I thought it was something along the lines that Patterson is further along physically than Edwards was -- which has morphed into him being "better" than Jesse overall.
But again, I could be wrong.
