    Guess Farmar and Brown aren't working for them...Blake's no Fisher but he'll run that offense for Phil.

    Actually that tells me they are handing the keys to Farmar and Blake would be coming off the bench. Brown is more of a back up 2 so it doesn't really affect him at all. Fishcer sounded like he was going to retire earlier in the series which means they would have an empty spot open. It'd be a good opportunity for him. We'll see what happens

    Tells me he is more valuable than some Blazer fans credit him for.  He wont return in a Laker uniform :)

    Blake is a nice backup point guard but Nate uses him/relies on him too much. He'd be a nice fit in the triangle offense where the point guard doesn't have to do too much but knock down jump shots. I think they'll experience a pretty big drop though if they go from Fisher to Blake.

    Huge drop. Fisher has better defense not by much, but it's there. He also penetrates a lot better. But in Lakers triangle offense he'll do fine just catching and shooting. But in our offense, nope. We need someone who can have the ball in his hands to create a play when Roy or Aldridge is doubled. Blake doesn't provide that at all. So yeah, not valuable to our team. Nice try.

    He's good enough to be a back up pg for the world champions, but wont benefit the Blazers as a back up pg .   LOL !!

    Different systems call for different needs. Example. Antwan Jamison was very ineffective in Mike Browns offense. Shawn Marion was ineffective in both Toronto and Miami but got the job done in Dallas and in Phoenix. Trevor Ariza got no shots in LA but got plenty in Houston. Tyson Chandler is all about defense in Charlotte but with CP3 was a pick and roll threat.

    I dont think Bucks take on Batums contract when they have an identical player with the same contract for Sanders. Sanders and Henson seem like the only untouchables on that team

    Paul Allen might sell the Blazers but the Blazers will never leave Rip City.
