  As much as I CAN'T STAND BLAKE being a Duke alum, the guy always seemed to step up his game against better point guards in college. He used to own Jason (Jay, whatever) Williams when they went head-to-head.

    Steve Blake never played at Duke Deuchebag. He played at Maryland.

      He, The Sportsgod, meant HE is a Duke alumni. And "Deuchebag" is spelled 'douche bag'.

  Blake may have had a better game statistically, but he did NOT outplay Baron Davis. Coach Nellie benched Davis due to foul trouble and he was on the court for no more than 14 minutes.
  
  Watch the game before you write an article. And edit your title accordingly.
  
  P.S. It's funny to see Portland fans get super happy when Blake has one decent game out of 35, haha. Sorry guys, he still averages 8pts/4.7assts/0.8stls in 30 minutes. I should list the other 33 games he was horrible in(he had another average game against the Bucks), but I'll let you guys have this ONE. Baron outplayed by Blake, pff. Hahhaa, you wish.

    But props to Portand on the win! Pretty fun team to watch. It's great for Blazers fans.
  • BlazerBandit replied January 10, 2008

    Correction: the Blazers outplayed the Warriors. Steve Blake was a major part of that, so was the Warrior's horrendous defense. Steve Blake stepped up for his team, Baron let his team down. I'd say that is outplaying him.
    
    The Blazers have beaten the Warriors twice this year, and doing it so relatively easy. All you have to do is attack their big men with buckets in the paint and get Baron Davis and Stephen Jackson frustrated with fouls. They take themselves out of the game. That, my friends, is being mentally outplayed.
  • ptowncboy replied January 10, 2008

    Yes he did outplay Davis. Before you try to talk shit you should look at the stats chump! You let us have this one huh just like the first game. Your team has no future ours does loser!!! GO BLAZERS!!!!
    • jus10gee replied January 10, 2008

      I was watching the game, CHUMP. Winning the statistical numbers does not neccessarily mean you outplayed your counter-opponent, who you guys are claiming was Baron Davis.
      
      Learn something. So, did Blake "outplay" Brandan Wright? Stephen Jackson? Jarrett Jack? Belinelli? Brandon Roy? NO, but he did statistically have a better game than the previously listed.
      
      And how do we have no future when we have the second or third youngest team in the league? You're an idiot, for sure. Instead of just watching the game like the casual fan that you are, decipher the NBA inside - out, then post your comment with some substance.
      
      You are giving Portland fans a bad representation.
      
      • ptowncboy replied January 10, 2008

        Yes Blake outplayed everybody last night RETARD! He put those numbers up before the fourth!! The warriors dont stand a chance against the BLAZERS for a long time pal. Get used to it! Your team is full of hoodlums who will probably be in prison before long sucka! YA DIGG!!!!!!!
      • BigRandy replied January 10, 2008

        Because you really do have no future. You have two decent players and one likes to pack guns and act like a fool. Baron is a great player but he's not going to do it by himself. You are what we used to be. To quote Baron, "now we're the most gangster team in the league". What a joke! He was refering to getting Stephen back. You don't have a legit center and we do. And if you decipher the league so well how do you not now where your team ranks in age JACKASS
      • jus10gee replied January 11, 2008

        The only future Portland has is Brandon Roy and Lamarcus Aldridge.
        
        Baron Davis and S.Jax have 5+ more good years left, Monta Ellis(future all-star), Kelenna Azubuike is a beast, and if you don't think Andris Biedrins is a "legit" center with the highest FG% in the league(AND he's only 21 yrs. old) then you are one delusional individual. How do the Warriors have no future??
        
        P.S. I left Greg Oden out of the list for Portland's future purposely. Main reason being: He hasn't played a single NBA game. Thus, you have no idea of what type of "future" he beholds. He has proven nothing, except rehabbing on a timely manner.
  • mickeyd27 replied January 10, 2008

    I'm pretty sure he still out played him. Being in foul trouble is no excuse for a bad game. Any other night, Baron would have out played Blake. Don't write stupid comments if you don't know basketball. Baron shouldn't of gotten in foul trouble, but Blake and Blazers were penetrating. In yo fAce

        Got to say man, you're pretty immature. I'm a Blazer fan too, but I'm going to have to say Blake just had one of those on nights. I don't really like the guy, and I honestly think we should trade him when we get a better point guard. He's not a keeper.
        
        On the Baron Davis thing, yes he was outplayed statistically but who's had a better season over all? Don't forget about what Steve Blakes stats really are for the season. None the less, go blazers.
• jus10gee said January 10, 2008

  Correct, the Blazers definitely did outplay the Warriors. Stating the obvious there, especially if you simply glance at the final score. But, Blake did not outplay Baron Davis. Saying that one player outplayed his adjacent opponent, that suggests that he beat him one-on-one. In which Blake did not.
  
  And I don't know which sport you watch. But, in basketball, players do not take themselves out of the game - the coaches or officials do. AND what the hell is mentally outplayed? Did the Blazers hypnotize Baron and telepathically make him choose foul somebody?? It's usually referred to as officials call. That, my friend, was an idiotic comment you posted.

• tarheelotti said January 10, 2008

  Steve Blake always seems to play well when given the oppurtunity. Problem is, politically he can't get much PT due to teams giving contracts to bigger name players. Hopefully his run with Portland will be long, he sure deserves some consistent playing time.

    • IntoTheBreach replied January 10, 2008

      So he's averaging 4.7 assists/game and has better than a 3:1 assist to turnover ratio. He's paid to distribute the ball, and that's what he does. I guarantee the Blazers would not be as good as they have been without him.
      • jus10gee replied January 10, 2008

        4.7 assists per game, that is the worst average for a starting point gaurd. Do your research.

  Blake's cool. He's no BD but he's got a chance in the NBA. He's just incosistent, I watched him at a preseason Kings game at Sac.
  
  Since he got traded to Denver last year I liked him, how he distributed the ball and let AI get to play SG. He had 8.3 ppg. and 6.6 apg. at Denver. He has 10 ppg. and 4 apg. during a 17-1 stretch of games, but if he steps up those stats, he can be better.

• Dewey said January 11, 2008

  I watched the whole game. I agree that Steve Blake outplayed Baron Davis. I'm a Warriors ticket holder, live in San Francisco, and love watching Baron and the Warriors. But last night Steve Blake was the best player on the floor. Case in point: Baron had one field goal the entire game. Yeah, he had limited playing time, but he played long enough to miss five of 'em.
  
  Overall I don't think anyone would argue with the fact that Baron is the better point guard, but last night you've gotta give it up to Maryland alum Steve Blake. The guy was money. Even as a Warriors fan, I was bummed to see him leave the game. He deserved a career high (fell one point short) the way he was playing. The Warriors will get the upper hand next time!

• jfranzen said January 11, 2008

  Any time your fourth or fifth best player overall can be the best player on the floor, and your team gets the win, fans should celebrate.
  
  No one thinks Blake is better than Davis for 82 games a year.
  No one can argue that Golden State is better than Portland, because the record is the record.
  If Golden State's GM could trade rosters with Portland, he would.
  Blake is a good guy with very little style. Davis is straight pimp.

    Good luck with the rehab, Greg. There are plenty of good passing guards on this team, so you should get the ball in a position to score a lot. And it won't hurt if Blake's still shooting the lights out. The Blazers should be ridiculous next year.

• djrockman9 said January 11, 2008

  he was rolling. LAST NIGHT. 7.9PPG 4.7APG is hardly impressive. If Baron is top 5 on All-Star voting. Blake would be easily a starter.

  Mr. Oden, please check out what this person said. I hope you get back from your injury soon, and please leave that town - clearly this ONE fan does not have a clue what he is saying, but that doesn't represent the whole portland nation, but he just made YOU GUYS look bad.

    Steve Blake has one goal when he takes the court... it isn't to steal assists from Brandon, or to outscore LA, it is to be efficient, which he does as good as any guard in the game.
    
    Steve Blake ranks fifth in the NBA in assist/turnover ratio (3.51) and is sixth in 3-point percentage (.473).
    
    The team does't need him to score and Bradon gets a grip of his assists. Don't just quote season stats if you are going to talk about what a player brings to the table.
