Let's not forget Kobe tricked the world into thinking Smush was a "point guard". Yep the same smush parker that was cut from a 2 year guaranteed deal in miami after 3 weeks of service. Yeah the same smush that was called "a walking turnover" in detroit by Larry Brown before he came to LA.

Don't worry everyone we'll have all year to debate which one sucks more. I'm still going with Blake sucks more though.


Don't worry, we (Magic fans) were naive like you too when the Knicks fans came to our board and thanked us tenfold for taking Duhon from them. How bad could he be? We thought.

Now that you mention it, Blazer fans did the same thing when Blake signed here... :-?

Yeah Blazers fans were spot on. They really warned us, so thats why I have very little faith Duhon won't be exactly like Magic fans are saying. I and most others here liked that signing. Little did we know that we were getting a player whose biggest impact on the Lakers was going to be getting chicken pox and stepping on a spike strip.

It's so good to see Laker fans and Blazer fans have something in common: Bordering-on-seething dislike for Steve "Soft Porn" Blake. I wish you all the best of luck in seeing him surpassed on the depth chart, as he recovers from this devastating parking lot spike.

It's funny because both Mike Brown and Nate McMillan had some kind of obession with giving Blake a ton of minutes despite better pgs on the roster.

:lol: I would rather take Fish as a back up.
Hopefuly D-Mo can get back up minutes as well. The kid has been working hard in the offseason.

What exactly is a spike strip? I thought it was this:

But it seems like you guys are describing this:

Seems like you'd have to step on one at the perfect angle for the spike to not retract?

nasty.

Morris time! though based on the scrimmages, it looks like they are using DJO as PG (guarding Morris)? or am I just assuming things?

That's it, and you'd pretty much have to hit it at an upward angle from straight on the pointy side for it not to retract.

Plus, you'd have to be a complete numbskull.

how the hell did Steve Blake run into that. its like he was trying to do it on purpose.
I bet Mike Brown would still make him come out the bench.

Personally, I think the fact that Fisher has never stepped on a strike strip proves he has better court vision, is less clumsy, and is a better decision maker than Steve Blake... and I'm not even joking

Heard from Coach Dave Miller that Duhon was looking good with the 2nd unit yesterday in practice so it makes sense Blake is rushing back before he's on the outside looking in lol
