Why the heck do people want Blake all of a sudden? Is it just because he is a 'name'? Cause it can't be for any other reason or any thought that he'd actually lead us somewhere.


I would like to get him because he is a proven player. He has had some bad luck injuries, but that could change as they are not chronic type things.

Clippers were a far better team with him on the floor than not on the floor.

The Lakers would be as well, he is a much better player now than Randle is or ever will be in my mind.

I would go after him hard and I have a feeling they will.

Is he the perfect addition? Perhaps not, but I think he could be attainable and honestly would be a much better signing than wasting money on Mozgov's and Deng's.
Agreed

I'm far more perplexed by anyone that would still want DeMarcus Cousins than I am anybody that would want Blake.

Cousins is VERY good player, but I've long said he's too much of a basket case to take a chance on, and he's not remotely as good as some people think he is...

Blake when he's at his best I can see him dragging a team into the playoffs by himself, but he's had some bad injuries and some downright stupid moments that have caused his stock to drop. The big concern for him is that moving forward his game is going to have to change to make up for his already declining athleticism.

Gut the team for PG13 and Jimmy Butler and sign Jrue Holiday?
And pray for that Mozgov for Brook Lopez deal?

A bunch of D-Leaguers as the bench.
