Jerryd Bayless

I have read in the media that Sacramento is looking to acquire a young PG who could play along side of Tyreke, both as the primary ball handler and also playing off the ball as well.

I was wondering what Sacramento fans think of Jerryd Bayless? Would there be any interest in him? Do you think he could be a fit?

Yes I would love Bayless in SAC I have even suggested a BAYLESS & PEJA swap for DALY & CISCO deal this or a deal close to it I believe has a real shot of happening it cannot happen though until at least january 20th per NBA rules because Bayless was traded not once but twice this season.

This would ber ideal for SAC as we get a young point guard , get rid of at least 1 longterm contract wich Petrie wants that plus we dont add to our next seasons payroll we actually reduce it more a bit .

I think that could be a good foundation for a deal, but taking back a 30 year old shooting guard with 2 years and almost $12mil left on their salary would not be very good for Toronto. The deal proposed above both gives Sacramento the best player in the trade (Bayless) and saves them more money. That would be too sweet a deal for the Kings and a rip off for the Raps.

Well the raptors want another big man so its their choice to do it or not ! Kings wont trade their pick & you must admitt PEJA is dead weight & useless now he cant play were as Daly is a solid bigman & can improve the team & Garcia is a solid vet . If the RAPTORS said No I am sure PETRIE would say dont call back unless you want to agree to my terms or something along those lines .
The Raptors have a shot to make the playoffs still likely they would do it if they really wanted Daly

I think Bayless is one of those few players that have more value on RealGM than they really do (see, Andrew Bynum).

SacKingZZZ · Post #6 » by **SacKingZZZ** » Sun Jan 16, 2011 11:31 am

Yeah, Bayless hasn't really been all that studly, but I'd be down with a deal sending Landry out for him if there's nothing better.

This.

He's one of those guys that's perpetually going to "break out next year", and before you know it, five years have gone by.

And to think that we were (maybe) one pick away from drafting him. Stupid Pacers.

Poor shooter = no thanks. And that's before you get to the part about him being overrated.

Alot of you honestly are way undervaluing Bayless the deal is Portland was stuck between playing A.Miller ,Blake & trying to find minutes for Bayless wich were not many he had already established vets lined up in front of him . There was no way he was going to start in front of Miller more so do to Millers experience and still being reasonably young at the time they drafted Bayless . Bottom line he never really got a break . Since being traded to Toronto he has had alot more opportunity in more cases than not he has played really well & thus stepped up his game .
Bayless if given the opportunity wich if he was aquired by the Kings would easily get that opportunity would shine & end up having a very solid - great career .

Anyone who does not want Bayless because they say he cant shot or not really good , they think he is overrated is dead wrong . No he is not an elite player right now but he is solid & a very promising young point guard I would happily have him as our starting point guard & move Reke over to the 2 guard .

Anyone who wants to make a comment about what about Beno should realize if we aquired any point guard its extremelly likely means Beno would be traded 1 way or the other .

Dead wrong? So those 3pt %'s in the low 30s are just my imagination?

You guys are dead wrong rpa I tend to agree with alot of what you normally have to say in this case I think your wrong honesty I dont see any reason to argue against you or nox not because I think you guys are right because I still disagree but I just believe it will get nowhere honestly .
Bayless IMO could just as easily be dealt to SAC as just the same he may not . The only way he would even have a shot of being dealt to us is by the Kings having a deal in place for Beno to another team as Toronto would not be suited for the raptors.

Facing reality, unless he is already proven as a scorer in the league (a la a Jamal Crawford type who is consistent enough to put up sixth MOY numbers), then Bayless types are literally a dime a dozen. He is basically an undersized (listed as 6'1" pre-draft as I recall) shooting guard. Unless he improves as a scorer drastically, he is not worth more than a short-term cheap contract to see if he realizes his "potential".

RoyalCourtJestr · Post #15 » by **RoyalCourtJestr** » Tue Jan 18, 2011 2:05 am

Can't shoot. Unless he's cheap, no thanks. 40% shooting and 32% from 3 isn't going to cut it. Rather pay more and get a more quality like Mayo, or to a lesser extent DJ Augustin.

SacKingZZZ · Post #16 » by **SacKingZZZ** » Wed Jan 19, 2011 12:07 am

The hype on Bayless is his shooting ability. I'd say his role since coming into the league has been iffy and that almost always causes a hit to a players FG%. Shooting is too rhythmically oriented for role and shot opportunities to not be a factor. Since joining the Raps he's gotten more time and is hovering around 36% from 3, far from terrible. And that's with almost 3 attempts a game.

Blazer fan here, Bayles is not a PG, he's a short SG who can take it to the hole and has a score first mentality

If Kemba and Knight are gone by #7, would any of you be interested in packaging the #7 pick for Bayless? The guy had better numbers than Knight did as a freshman before he came out, has every bit the tools and would be a great fit beside Tyreke, and he even started to come on real strong starting for Toronto at the end of last year...

Still just 22, here are his numbers from the 14 games he started last year:

FG% .467 3pt% .333 FT& .810 PPG 18.1 TRB 3.6 APG 6.7
