$64k question?
Well, on a the 2nd night of the B2B, Steph did play 38 minutes (but atleast it wasn't 40+), but Blake got us 18 solid minutes. He made several nice passes, unfortunately they went to Speights who missed many times.
I think the Dubs should look to Blake more on the offensive end, he has a solid shot, and makes smart plays.

Looks like Crawford ain't diggin' the Blake signing. he was throwing up shots from everywhere.
Crawford is a natural scorer, not a distributing PG. This year as a Celtic was the first year he experimented being a distributor and showed he could do so, but it's not his natural role.
Having Blake run the second unit, puts him back in his comfort zone, which is putting the ball in the bucket. That's kind of what the Warriors need with the second unit.
In other news brooks and bazemore had very good nights tonight
The thing w Blake is that he's very hard nosed and is willing to take a big shot. Yes, he can QB but his leadership and toughness is where it's at for me.
Forget big shots, Blake made JO look 10 years younger with some of those sweet passes. granted it was against a terrible Nets team, but still.
Blake found Green for a couple of nice looks to the hole as well.
HB had another bad night, 1 for 7, with D.Lee out, this was another night for him to step up, but D. Green with 16 points, and 10 boards, yes, 16 boards and 10 boards , 3 steals, 2 dimes, and he didn't back down when K.G tried to go "thug" on him.
Steph had a solid night, my favorite stat besides the "W" is, only 31 mins played for Steph, save those minutes for the stretch and playoff runs.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO DUBS!
from stat lines alone, looks like JC hasn't exactly flourished with Blake on board. what have the games shown you guys in person?
The entire second unit has looked a lot better since Blake's been here. JO/Green/HB/Craw/Blake can actually outplay the other team's second unit. And when one of the starters replaces Craw it's a very tough defensive unit.
When the season started we all agreed the starters were great but the bench sucked.
They addressed the bench, plus the team is basically healthy now. If they can stay healthy maybe they really do make some noise...too bad the conference is so damn good. Even the 8 seed this year in the West would be a top 5 team in the East.
