Yeah...Bakers ceiling is backup PG...role player off the bench. I didn't know anyone thought he had starter potential. I love the kid and I don't think that. He needs to show if he can be that at some point this year. One guard at a time. Frank is more important right now. When Jack needs a break...I'm sure we'll see Baker. I expect Sessions to be cut but, that's no guarantee. 1 week left for someone on the roster.
No shame in being a guy like Matthew Dellavedova. If Ron Baker could at least play at his level, then it would allow the team not to have to rely so hard on Ntilikina early on.
Agreed. If Baker can get his shot back...he'd be a perfect bench role player. People talk about him as if he's a scrub getting way too much money. He's got potential as a quality bench player. He's played well for this team. I don't get the hate for the kid.
Yeah I think you guys are right. I think there is some resentment that he got a contract so easily without proving much of anything. Whereas guys like Galloway had to fight in the D league for a season before they got their shot. It's not Bakers fault Mills makes questionable decisions (I hope that no trade clause rumor isn't true). But if he can be a Delly type of player it would be a success!
