But Terps legend Steve Blake is apparently crazy enough to do just that.Arenas recalled a story from when he and Blake were teammates on the during &nbsp;They got into a fight at practice and how Blake reacted afterward took Arenas by surprise."During practice I elbowed Steve Blake and he swung at me," Arenas said. "I was like 'damn, wait hold on.' Oh, really? Did [he] just throw a punch at me? Is that how we're working here? We're going through it, like wrestling on the floor. Practiced ended.
