    Had a good shooting performance in this year's playoffs for the Nuggets. It was announced that Miami, Portland, Atlanta and Cleveland are all drawing interest in him now. Is this guy worthy of all this attention and do Nuggets fans want him back next season? I've always had an interest in this guy, he's a very quick guard with some nice attributes.

    he is a good distributor, doesn't seem to turn it over to much. I like his 3pt shooting too, I'd say that his d is not up to par though. I dont know - thier interest might be warranted depending on the $$ behind thier courtship!

    Hm, Cleveland is drawing some interest in Mr.Blake? I honestly wouldn't mind him in a Cavaliers jersey, he has been pretty good since coming to Denver and he has done an overall solid job running the point. I think Denver will try to resigning him, but he might just go where ever he gets the most money.

    I dont really think that he shot the ball well in the series against the Spurs. He made a BIG mistake against the Spurs in game 4 I think it was...Maybe game 5. He just doenst do a whole lot. He is one of the best passers on that team, but he is just a liability to shoot the ball at times...

    I don't know what you're talking about ballerman...?I think the Nuggets need him, he is a pass first point guard who makes little mistakes. He has shown he can be clutch at times and is a good shooter from beyond the arc. He can play some good D also.

    You fogot to mention the Pacers. They have interest in him. And can probably afford him.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>I dont really think that he shot the ball well in the series against the Spurs</div>He shot 45% from FG and 50% from 3PT range so that argument can get thrown out the window.

    Steve Blake is a nice player, but I think someone's going to overpay for a backup PG who played better than usual in a contract year.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>but I think someone's going to overpay for a backup PG who played better than usual in a contract year</div>That's such a common NBA criticism, I really don't think that is the case with Blake. He finally got on a team that could succeed and he played well. I don't buy that argument with this kid, that's just my opinion but I think Blake can play this well on any team.
