Big Night for Blake

[skyvue]

In the Pistons' win over the Suns tonight, Blake had 26 points, 10 assists, and 9 rebounds, just missing a triple double.

Has he ever had a triple double before?

He's had 7 in the regular season and 3 in the playoffs, all three in a two-week span in 2015. One of those was in game 7 against the Spurs. The guy's good.

Today's would have been his first with no turnovers, though - usually he has 4 or 5.

Next year, we'll have three guys in the NBA for the first time since around th millenium. Back in the mid '90s we had SIX guys on NBA rosters. Of course, none of them was a Blake Griffin. He's obviously the best NBA player OU has produced. I hope he can stay healthy next year so he can finally get that 6th All-Star selection (been sitting on 5 for three years).

Buddy has also put up over 20 points the last 4 games...he's playing really well and efficient lately. He's shot over 50% from the floor in all 4 games.

7 seems surprisingly low with the good assist numbers he gets

With Trae in there maybe we will start getting better recognition for producing elite pros. We need all the ammo we can get in order to win these recruiting battles.

Kind of crazy that the 3 pros we have produced in the 20 years since Najera entered the league have all been high end lottery type talents (excluding the handful of games that WW/Taylor Griffin played). You'd expect a team to have several Najera type role players for every high end top of the draft kid they put out.

Blake had a triple-double tonight: 21 pts, 10 assists and 10 boards.

It's great to have 2 guys playing really good ball in the NBA. It should help in recruiting but it really hasn't lately.
