Blake's jumper is dropping.
3 swishes in each of the last 2 games. His free throw percntage is going up also.


This east coast trip should reveal the amount of permanance his recent improvements have.

And yes his jumper is a jumper because you can slide a sheet of paper under his feet when he shoots it. lol

Needless to say if his jumper keeps dropping the league has big problems.

he is slowly but surely developing into a complete player before our eyes, sort of like DJ getting his contract first then growing his game

also, with griffin and DJ still developing their games as we are becoming an elite team in the west, it is hard to imagine CP3 not signing with us after this season let alone the most money we can offer

His jumper has been great so far, and his FT shooting has gotten consistent. Hopefully he gets up to about 70% FG. I guess the shooting coach wasn't really joking when he said that in a year, Blake could be a really good shooter if he keeps working with him.

This helps the Clippers a lot when the playoffs come around because opposing teams defensive strategies will have to change if Blake is hitting that jumpshot.

still not second nature yet.

u can tell mentally he's still getting confident with it.
500-1000 a day blake....and keep working on the Defense.

making me proud.

He's shooting >40% from 16-23, if that is him without being confident, then him with confidence would start approaching elite effectiveness from that range. Bob Thate has been a great contributor to Blake's career based in the results so far.

Got to be more confident at the line too

We were talking about this very thing at work last night. With DJ being the MIP and Blake expanding his game, plus the FO showing they will let CP3 have input into the way our roster looks, what more could a player want? For the first time since Neddy and I have been Clipper fans, I think we are starting to look like THE free agent destination

yes, yes in deed.

when harper and manning were bolting outta here, even though i was disappointed, i understood that we were not exactly a powerhouse team. when ike austin bolted out, that really bothered me for a long time. until mobley signed with us, only big name player to sign a free agent deal with us was budda edwards and he was waaay beyond his prime. how things have changed lately, all the suffering of cheering for this team over the decades are now worth it...

Blake has added a slight step back jumper to his package.

He learned that from Carmelo in the team U.S.A practices its amazing how its money and has used it numerous times when shot clock is goint down to get a rhythm shot off. The jumper is getting better by the game.
