I think just because Blake is such a force inside, that alone makes his teammates better. Same with Dwight Howard.

Im just saying if I were starting a franchise Id go with the sure thing.

And Derrick Rose is the surest thing in the league right now.

Blakes inside game reminds me of Tyler Hansbrough's.

he's a rookie
he's putting up 22/13/4 (27/15/5 this month)
and he's not even close to what he can be.
his offensive game isnt that bad at all. Has a mid range jumper thats improved all season, good enough post moves, he's only getting better

he's been getting better at defense, he's a no nonsense guy. he and rose have similar personalities and work ethics

only reason i dont take rose is because there are so many great PG's that if we were building a team using a fantasy draft, you'd be ok if you didnt take rose 1st, but took rondo, or westbrook like 15th

arent many like Blake.

How do you plan on getting two picks in the 1st round of this draft? If you're getting Blake, you're not getting a Westbrook or Rondo.

He also plays for a team that is 17-26.
Playing better or not, his stats are inflated. As are Gordon's.

He's a good player, but not the best player in the league to build my team around.

his first month of his career, with baron not playing, with a new coach, new system for a young team, they were 1-13
since then, they're above 500

ok fine
guys like Tyreke, or Steph Curry, or Jennings, or Jrue Holiday, or Darren Collison, or Tony Parker, etc

heres an idea, why not actually do this?

have someone step up and let us pick teams make a random draft and draft a 14 man roster?

Considering you'd need all 32 guys to make it worthwhile, I doubt we could do it.

They're called NBA Redrafts btw.

I don't know about you, but Reke, Curry, Jennings, and Parker would all be 1st rounders IMO.

As much as I like Derrick I can't pass up KD or even freaking LeCon if I'm a GM. If I draft at 3 or 4 though it's gotta be Derrick. Blake is also top 5 to build a team around no doubt
