Steve Blake on Steroids ...

Most of you probably recall KP famously declaring Jerryd Bayless "Jarret Jack on Steroids" shortly after he drafted him, but in retrospect perhaps he should have been looking hard for "Steve Blake on Steroids" especially given the latest flap with Roy declaring that he wants the ball more and wants to go back to the way the offense ran two years ago

So assuming that what this team needs is another point guard who can space the floor most of the time, but also run an offense and play some physical D, who out there in the league would you guys consider a candidate to be this "Blake on the Sauce?" Is Wesley Matthews worth looking at as a one considering his on-the-ball defense, his shooting ability and what appears to be pretty good court vision and ball-handling?

 

Steve Blake on steroids = The BirdMan!!!!!

 

Stephan Curry

 

That's "Steve on Crystal Meth"

 

Chancey Billups

 

Too old.

Next.

 

?

 

George Hill.

 

Goran Dragic

 

Aaron Brooks? >_>

 

Aaron Brooks can barely guard a chair. Like the George Hill idea though, Dragic would be interesting ...

 

In the hubbub of all that Chris Paul talk, we should've been targeting Darren Collison with a laser gun. He would've been a PERFECT fit with Roy. Better than Paul.

 

I seem to remember Aaron Brooks destroying Steve Blake and holding him virtually scoreless. But then it did seem like Brandon Roy scored all of our points in that series.

 

He would be awesome but why would the Suns give him up? He's the heir apparent to Nash.

 

That's a bit like saying I saw a guy kick the hell out of a 10 year old kid and the 10 year old kid couldn't even land a punch ... whoopdeedoo.

 

They wouldn't, but were just trying to figure out who Stevie would be if he were on the clear.

 

Outside of Game 1 and the end of Game 2, Blake SHUT DOWN Brooks, completely owning him. In other words, Blake made adjustments afte game 1 and all Brooks got was a flurry of shots at the end of a game we had in the bag.

 

Blake's D isn't that much better than Brooks. I was basing it more on 3 point shooting ability than anything.

 

Brooks averaged more points than Blake in that series, and his team advanced in the playoffs. Blake doesn't OWN anything.

 

Actually, outside of Mo Williams, maybe Jarrett Jack is our best bet. He's having a fantastic preseason and he hasn't missed from the three point line. He also knows Roy, knows Nate. I actually think he'd be a great fit now that he's had time to hone is game in Tor and Indy. An Andre Miller for Jarrett Jack swap seems fair for both sides especially since Toronto would get cap relief to help rebuild. What do you think? Jack may be the best guy out there.
