Are we any of those teams?

girlygirl wrote:Has anyone gotten a good feeling about whether the Blazers management REALLY thinks Bayless will work as a PG? When I saw him in summer league, he looked like a Ben Gordon type SG, although one who was a much worse outside shooter but much better at getting to and finishing at, the rim than BG. I've seen him a few times recently (since Blake got hurt), and he's seeing decent PT. But he STILL looks like a small SG. He doesn't come across as a PG at all. I looked up his stats -- he's had 11 games in which he's played 15 or more minutes. In those 15 games he's taken 70 shots (shooting 34.3%!!!) and has just 19 assists (and 15 turnovers). Yuck.
I realize he's a rookie, he's still learning -- and it's a small sample size -- but nothing in those stats, or in what I've seen of him, suggests he's ever going to be a PG rather than a small SG. Now I know with Brandon Roy at SG the Blazers don't need a Chris Paul-type to play alongside him. But Bayless seems to dominate the ball too much -- if I were the Blazers, I wouldn't be very confident that he's the answer to be the future starting PG.

Come in with Kirk and Noc and Take Rudy and Outlaw or even Rudy and Frye or whoever.
That way you have Rudy when Gordon leaves and you have a starting five of
Rose
Rudy
Deng
Thomas
Noah

There's some serious undervaluing of Rudy Fernandez in here.
