Why do you say so?

I think blake coming back is a positive, he gives us a Three Point Shooting threat and stability at the Backup PG position (Dixon is TO prone and not a PG).

He's also a True point guard.

Juan has played well this season. He's handled the pg spot real well and has provided us with a good offensive scoring threat.

Blake isn't a good shooter but he runs a smoother pg spot but I'd doubt he'd be much better than Juan has been this season.

The negative is the fact that Blake's presence could transtion Juan back into the selfish shoot 1st player he was last season trying to impress coaches or other teams.

Blake is sure to press some knowing the back up pg minutes are gonna be very thin with the Glut of guards we have.

Peeler could handle the role himself to tell you the truth.

I really don't expect Blake's return to have much impact at all there aren't that many minutes there and he's not a high volume assist guy. Despite being our only real natural pg.

Juan has been ok, but if you noticed in the last two games his minutes have decreased big time and he's become a non factor. Juan's natural instinct is to score, Blake's is to pass, that little fundamental difference is why I'd rather have Blake being the backup PG.

I wouldn't be surprised if Juan is completely out of the rotation once Blake gets back into form. I think even after Juan's strong play the team sees Blake as apart of the future and Juan as maybe not.

I think Blake will help though. I think one thing is that he doesn't try to do too much. Juan sometimes tries to go one on one and throws up some BS, their's still been a hint of selfish shot jacking in Juan's play. Blake will just run the offense and hit spot up 3s.

Notice Juan's minutes have decresed same thing is gonna happen to Blake EJ is doing the right thing by relying on the starters for bigger minutes Blake is gonna play but his contributions are gonna be minimal .

Juan isn't gonna fade out of the line-up he's still gonna play because I seriously doubt that Blake could have played any better than Juan have.

Juan helped win a couple of those ball games with big numbers Blake has never had that sort of impact on a game.

Blake is also a low assist guy for a guy who is supposed to be a set up man he played recklessly most of last season and was one of the worst entry passers on the team.

He became a guy obsessed with proving he could shoot the ball.
