How do we fix the bench?

I still think Blake is a better player.

Better point guard probably, but better player? meh.

Replacing Bayless with any real PG, such as Blake, would improve the team. Anthraxing Bayless, Webster, and Rudy would be an improvement if we got 3 experienced replacements, of practically any quality. Getting a coach who likes the fast break would use a lot of unused talent. And we could hire Jerome Kersey as Feather Fluffer.

I think the bench guys need some sort of fluffer to "build their confidence" before each game.

I wonder if Luke Ridnour is available. He's upped his game, has played effectively for Nate, and seems to accept being a very good bench PG this year.

Blake isn't a point guard either though. He's a spot-up shooter who plays alongside Brandon Roy.

Blake's averaging 5.5 assists in 24 mpg with the Clipps. Miller is averaging 5.4 assists in 31 mpg with the Blazers.

Perhaps Blake isn't a terrible PG, especially on a second unit.
