BLAKE IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

According to the our friends in Denver Blake is coming back to Portland...

Rocky Mountain News Article

Most interesting parts of the article...

"The free-agent point guard said today he has agreed to a three-year deal with the Trail Blazers."

"He was willing to return to Denver but opted for Portland as the Nuggets were on the verge of finalizing a contract with guard Chucky Atkins.

"That's OK, if that's the direction they want to go," Blake said in a brief phone interview. "I just decided to go back to Portland." "

=========================

This further fuels speculation that Jarret Jack will be traded. It's hard to believe that the Blazers would go into next season with Blake, Jack and Sergio (who has been dubbed the point guard of the future) on the roster.

I think Jack fits the new 'friendly' Blazers, and his skills/upside are desirable. Blake is exciting and dynamic, but I'm not sure this move was timely. What's the market for Jack? Who's got a small forward to spare?
