    lol... some people wanted Steve Blake.

    2 points, -28. 3 assists in 18 minutes.

    Always knew he was terrible.

    Horrible loss for GS.

    Just one game. Kobe said he's upset that the Lakers traded Blake.

    Bobcats look real good lately. Jefferson is a beast. He has always been labeled a good player on a shitty team. Steve Clifford can coach.

    That's because Blake does for Kobe what he did for Roy, stay back and pass him the ball. He's actually the perfect pt guard for Kobe.

    Right. Just one game.

    His highest pt total with GSW? 9

    His highest assist total? 8

    When were those? The same game. But it's just one game!

    Since he's been traded:

    3 pts/1 ast 17 minutes
    6 pts/5 assists 16 minutes
    6 pts/2 assists 17 minutes
    4 pts/2 assists 26 minutes
    9 points/4 assists 20 minutes
    3 points/3 assists 16 minutes
    0 points/6 assists 17 minutes
    4 points/6 assists 27 minutes
    6 points/3 assists 26 minutes
    7 points/2 assists 20 minutes
    9 points/8 assists 25 minutes
    0 points/1 assist in 21 minutes
    2 points/3 assists in 18 minutes

    I guess it was just one game huh? I'll await your rebuddle.

    Check GSW's bench production before and after the Blake trade.

    Last time Blazers won more than 50 games in a season, Blake was starting PG.

    For Lakers this season, Blake averaged 10 ppg, 4rpg, and 8 apg while shooting 40% from three. How many players have done that this season? Offhand, I think the only other guy is his teammate Stephen Curry. Just a guess.

    No he wasn't. Andre Miller was. The last time the Blazerd won 50 games was the season we traded Blake and Travis Outlaw for Marcus Camby.

    Yes, because we all know how crucial the Blake/Kobe starting back court was for the Lakers' success this season. They played a total of 2 games together and the Lakers were 0-2 with Blake and Kobe in the line up. Of course, we all know the combination of a 34-year old mediocre PG and a grotesquely overpaid, broken down 35-year old SG is EXACTLY every GM's wet dream of a rebuilding plan. If only the Laker's would have honored Kobe's wishes and kept Blake, they'd be on the doorstep of another dynasty.

    Not sure how someone can miss out on something that wasn't necessarily an option.
