Rocket fans said Artest would chuck us out of games and implode.

Being in LA and playing with guys like Kobe, Pau, and Fish will pull every little bit of good potential out of you and suppress the negative.

My favorite thing about Steve Blake is that Kobe trusted him and he didn't let him down... how many guys has Kobe really trusted to take the last shot throughout the years... Himself, Fisher... Horry? Down low we got Gasol and ... Shaq?

I remember being laughed at when I said Blake was better that Fisher and will be the starter.

I much prefer Blake with starters when Lamar is with the second unit. Kobe did not pass out in the fourth quarter on one play with plenty of time left on the shot clock becuase he's too used to playing with Fisher and instead ended up, with a contested miss. With Blake, Kobe should always pass out becuase Blake will look to pass back to Kobe or shoot if wide open.

Blake also looks to pass when driving and made that nice pass to Kobe who then passed to Pau for an easy bucket. If that was Fisher we would see the patented never pass brick off the backboard play he's famous for.
