Joel kept in great shape all summer and ended up having his best year as a pro. It seems to me like Blake has an advantage because he knows exactly what his role is and knows that if he hits open threes, plays some defense, and keeps his TO's low, the Blazers will win plenty of games next year. Andre Miller has to figure out what parts of his game work with the Blazers. I give the edge to Blake.
