    He still has a better FG% than Outlaw.

    Blake is the best PG in the league. He has sacrificed his game to mesh with Roy.

    Blake is the best PG in the league. By far. But he's sacrificed his game to mesh with Roy.

    If Nate gave Blake the reins, he would play like this every night:

    Blake isn't even the best PG in the league with first name of Steve.


    Stupid me, I actually just spent the last few minutes looking for a PG named "Steve" on nba.com/players

    totally spacing on Steve Nash as the obvious choice.

    Switch Nash and Blake and you'd see a huge difference. Blake would do everything that Nash does in Phoenix and they'd be undefeated. Here in Portland, he'd look like his time had past, having to share the ball with Roy and Miller and averaging 8 & 6.

    Fixed.

    I never realized Blake went off against the Clippers WHEN they were playing Novak, Ricky Davis, & Mardy Collins. Steve Blake would definitely be MVP if he could play D-League talent every night.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Steve Blake isn't even the best Maryland point guard named Steve.

    Remember when KP said we were actually going to take a look at what Francis could do for us?

    If Blake is the best PG in the game because of one game record, Scott Skiles is the best PG ever for having the most assists in one game.

    So Blake is the best point guard because of that one game
    Webster is the best small forward because of "the quarter" in Utah 2 years ago
    Oden is the worst ... then the best center in the league depending on the quarter.

    I think I'm getting the hang of this.

    Steve Blake is the best point guard in the NBA... someone should tell him.

    Kingspeed: "Steve! You're the best point guard in the NBA! It's okay! Stop hiding it!"

    Steve: "Oh my god... he's right."

    Next game Blanky goes off for 30 points, 15 assists, and 5 boards.

    Blake could do that if Nate let him.

    I think Magic Johnson, John Stockton, Oscar Robertson, and Jason Kidd have something to say about that...

    And after they're done speaking, Gary Payton, Steve Nash, Bob Cousy, and Isah Thomas would probably want a go.

    Another 80 million dollar man. At least he won a ROY. What has Blake ever done? Oh, my bad, I forgot he has had one game where he dropped a bunch of assists.

    This has to be a joke.
