I never once said he is just a dunker who thrives in transition. I absolutely believe he is more than that. But I don't see him as being a true go-to half court scorer of a championship contending team, in the way that guys like LeBron, Dirk, Durant, Duncan, Kobe, and Pierce have proven over the years.

I would love to see some clips that show him with anything better than a mediocre post game, or him showing an ability to be able to consistently create his own offense in the half court even against elite defensive teams.

Beating up on crappy teams with awful defense don't count. I want to see him demand the ball in the 4th quarter against teams like San Antonio, Indiana, Chicago, or Miami, and consistently beat the opposing teams most suitable defender (not getting switched to being defended by a point guard due to off ball picks) for buckets. And I want to see multiple games of him doing so.

I'm pretty sure you won't be able to show me any.

This may have made sense last year but with the development of his jumpshot and post game this year you just seem like you haven't watched him very much.

*spends 17 seconds going back and forth between audibles and the set plays by yelling and using hand gestures for absolutely nothing*

Was he always like this in New Orleans?

Yes. The Hornets always had one of the slowest paces in the league with CP3. He did run the team efficiently, but took alot of time off the clock.

very few players in NBA history have had the post game/footwork of some of the names you mentioned. Just because Blake isn't there yet, it doesn't justify your claim that blake will never be the true #1 of a championship team

and there is a reason a very limited number of players in NBA history lead teams to championships. Want to look at the list since 1980?

Magic
Kareem
Bird
Moses
Isiah
Jordan
Hakeem
Duncan
Shaq
Kobe
Wade
Pierce
Dirk
Lebron


So you really think Blake is going to find his way on that list, considering how abysmal his half-court scoring ability is in comparison to that list?

If he does, cool. But I don't see it happening. I think I have good reason to feel that way too.

This may have made sense last year but with the development of his jumpshot and post game this year you just seem like you haven't watched him very much.

So he went from a garbage jumpshot/post game to a mediocre jumpshot/post game?

Neat.

Offensively he's arguably already the best big in the league, and its his 4th year. I think you are pretty quick to write off a dude you admittedly don't watch play much. As of now its his defense that's holding him back from being "that guy," certainly not any aspect of his offense
