Ok, so what is the deal with Blake/Outlaw Trade rumors
I might be just talking out of my behind here, but I have been reading quite a bit of fanposts about trading Blake and/or Outlaw.
The question I pose for all of you is "why?"
Blake is the floor general who is the only reliable 3-point shooter that we have. He can dish and also shoot the pull up 2. Way underrated and an incredible asset to this team. Why not get rid of Sergio? Not only does he complain about minutes, but is a streaky shooter.
Outlaw on the other hand is quite the enigma. When he has the ball I don't want him to shoot because it is going to go one of two ways, but always begins the same with me saying "Oh God, please don't shoot it from that position." That being said he usually does and if it goes it = "Don't shoot it, don't shoo...ok, well, it went in. Alrighty then."
If it rims out, I just shrug my shoulders and say "I knew it." However, he is also one of the most underrated players in the league. Arguably been one of the most clutch shooters in the final 2 minutes (doesn't nesessarily take the last shot) and is really a great rolemodel (same with Blake).
Why all of a sudden do you want to trade them for Kirk Heinrich? Ugh. Or Amar'e? Double-ugh. Or Prince (which is the only one I would truly take because he plays defense)?
Thoughts?
