Sorry Blake can't have a high rating a guess;he can't guard all 5 men on the court!

I think they have him as an 85 which sounds good for me.


Probably B+ offense
B Defense
A+ potential

to showcase his one bad game where somebody actually got the better of him, how did you miss it?

it's not like aldridge isn't playing at an allstar level himself.

these are blakes numbers month by month though.

October: 16.7/11.0/2.3
November: 20.9/11.7/2.7
December: 23.0/13.5/3.9
January: 27.2/14.5/4.6

i'm not sure how somebody could argue against him right now with a straight face.

85 for him is too high I think, i think he should only be a 83, his defense is lacking

They have Griffin at an 85 now! Remember OVR doesnt mean that much!
Im surprised they didnt touch his vertical or layup rating though.
There's no way D. Howard should be a 79 if Blake is only a 65 layup.
His vertical should be higher than an 83 too.
2k didnt touch his defensive ratings from what I saw. His on ball defense is still only like a 57. Speed, Quickneess, Low post attributes, Free Throw, Shot Close, Dunk were raised for sure.

As far as Aldridge getting the best of him... LA had a great game and is having a great season in his own right. However, the Clippers looked pretty tired after jumping out of the gate pretty fast on Portland. Playing their 4th game in 5 nights takes its toll. Not to mention Griffin and Gordon played 44 minutes w/ Grif playing the whole 2nd half. Besides, Portland is still the better, more experienced team and should win at the Rose Garden. Its not that the Clippers dont play defense, its the fact that their bench is still very young, not very deep, and lacking defensively. Their starting 5 is a decent defensive unit with D. Jordan anchoring the middle. The Clippers turn the ball over way too much. That is their biggest problem. The Clippers are 19th in points allowed per game and 29th in turnovers per game.

I was playing with Blake and it felt nowhere close to the real thing, so I upped his ball handling ability, ball security, speed, and quickness. Feels right now, he's still a little awkward with the ball sometimes and loses control once in a while but that's how it should be. His overall went up to an 88 but I really don't think that matters much.

What can he do? -Make bank shot mid rangers -Dunk like crazy -Rebound over anyone -Post up against anyone -Run a fastbreak -Use smooth dribbling moves like a guard -Finish with a soft layup on a fastbreak -Finish with a quick assist on a fastbreak .....and so on....he can do it all

Gotta agree with this guy. Don't just watch the highlights, that's not the true story of the game. You gotta watch him play, and I mean the entire game, several times, then you will know he does all of these things and at a very high level as well.

For his epicness, 192.
