    If Blake becomes a Knick and takes away Sergio's chances in the league again, if I were Sergio, I'd punch him in the face.

    NY can't keep Lee if they want to sign 2 max players.

    blake saying he loves uptempo style offenses is like outlaw saying he wants to play for smart teams

    I thought Sergio already signed up for Europe next year. He is done in the NBA. Contract is already inked.

    In Blake's defense he didn't actually say he actually could play uptempo, only that he loves it.

    Closet Phoenix fan perhaps?

    I think Sergio has done a fine job of taking away his own chances in the league.

    Blake played fast-pace basketball in Denver next to AI and 'Melo (that team was 2nd in pace in the NBA that year). He is not great at it - but he is better than people give him credit for.

    Just because Blake was stuck in Nate's slow-down nightmare doesn't mean he doesn't like playing up tempo

    He might love it, but he can't play it very well. Either that or Nate doesn't run it very well

    If it's an H&H Bagel, it is thread worthy. Even more so if he went old-school on us and got a Bialy - but to get a good one of those would imply Brooklyn, which is Nets territory, to be honest.

    After seeing Sergio completely dismantle Blake the other night I'm not sure D'antoni would even let Steve carry Sergio's jock strap, never mind give him minutes ahead of Sergio.

    That's silly. Everyone knows that Euros don't wear jockstraps or underwear.

    Rudy would look real nice in D'Antoni's system!
