Steve Blake caught fire in the Lakers' Game 7 win on Saturday, making 5-of-6 three-pointers to finish with 19 points, two rebounds, three assists, two steals and a block. "I hate Steve Blake tonight," George Karl said after the game, "but I love him as a player." The Lakers have shot only 28.6 percent from downtown in the playoffs, worse than any active team except the 76ers (24.7 percent). They'll have a much better chance of defeating the Thunder with reliable perimeter shooting from Blake and Metta World Peace (4-of-11 from downtown on Saturday), who had many open looks with Denver aggressively double-teaming Kobe.
