Yes, I've stooped to a new low:

But here's why it's relevant:

Tyler Johnson wrote:“He’s not telling anyone yet whether they’re actually together, but Clippers bosses have told him that regardless, she’s not welcome to crash their locker room and distract everyone with the Kardashian circus,” says one insider.

“They saw what happened to [former Clipper] Lamar Odom when he was with Khloe [Kardashian] and they are not having that from their marquee player.”

Blake actually had a really good season last year outside of injury

Basically, the article said, "well he's not really 'overrated', but he makes a lot of money, isn't yet an above average 3PT shooter over a season, and didn't take many shots from 10-16 feet anymore".

Yes, he didn't attempt shots from short mid-range anymore and took more long mid-range shots, but that's been true for some time, and for his career, he only takes 8% of his FGA from short mid-range. On the other hand, how can we neglect that he shot a career high 43.6% from 16-<3PT or made a career high 38 3PT shots and was taking 3.0/game over the last 30 games, shooting 37.1% 3PT? Last season was Blake's most efficient scoring season since 13-14 and the highest Ortg of his career (115). For the year he took 2 3PA/G, he shot a career high 76% FT, he averaged 4.9 apg in 34 mins, and he had his highest FTr since 13-14. I think things are looking up for him.

Are we still interested in giving DeAndre the max next offseason?
