Steve Blake started at point guard for resting Steve Nash and wasted no time following up on Wednesday's solid performance, scoring 13 points with three rebounds, eight assists and two treys in 36 minutes. Blake hit 4-of-11 shots from the field and 3-of-4 from the line, and he might have stepped in front of Jordan Farmar (10 points, two assists, 23 minutes) to be the beneficiary of Nash's various ailments. Things are going to get tight across the board when Kobe Bryant returns eventually, but for now owners can look to Blake's early season late round value and consider him as a speculative, short-term add.
