so, if we aren't going to Play Rudy more than 15mpg

then we really should package him and someone else in a trade. It’s a complete waste to keep him nailed to the bench like this.

I'm sure Rudy will play in the fourth quarter for sure.

The Kings have the best bench I’ve seen. There are easily 14 guys on this team good enough for every bench in the league. Now if we could only get some starters, I’d totally jizz in my pants.

But Blake shouldn't be taking minutes from Rudy.

Blair, Lawson, Budinger and Flynn have the top 4 rookie PERs

Of course, Evans will have the highest PPG which means he’ll win.

AND ya gotta remmeber, he has played like crap until this game and last game.

Poor Hornets for giving Butler away for nothing. Not saying he’d shut Kobe down, but it’s still dumb.

Any reason why Greg only got to play 11 mins?

We need to get him off in some games not only for his Psyche but for the refs to start to recognze that he can play and is not just a foul prone boob!

by FlyinSouth on Nov 8, 2009 7:21 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

I would guess

Nate is still being cautious with GO’s minutes. We have the best backup 5 in the league, I like using Joel to keep Greg fresh for the end of the year, especially in games like this

Bayless just had a sick, sick pass to Rudy who had a sick, sick cut under the basket and dished it out to the open Martell.. who drained a very pretty three point shot.

Summary: we pummeled it down their throats and Oden had a sweet reverse spin to left handed jump hook.

One of those rare Blazer games that was long over since the first quarter. I think Miller was hugely responsible for it.

on a serious note he also had no TO’s tonight despite making a few risky/great passes and being thrown the ball quite a bit. Great even though in limited minutes.

And it looks like he can actually play a pick and pop/roll, with the added threat that he can actually drive to the rim on the blocked side if he sees an open route. And to him, pretty much all routes are open.

After getting zero minutes up to these last 2 games.

Young Bayless really presses and forces things when he played after not playing. Old, mature, veteran Bayless doesn’t.

In the last 2 games anywho.

by Mortimer on Nov 8, 2009 8:38 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

Very positive

I had the sense that the difference between him being very bad like last year and a good player was razor-thin. He just needed to get his shot right and learn to not pick up cheap fouls all the time. Once he does those things, he should actually be able to get some time on the floor, and I think he’ll improve from there. He looks liek he may have fixed those things.

His defense is still rife with errors—but he is the ONLY PG on the team who can actually fight through picks. We got killed so often last year, because the simplest pick would have Blake or Sergio looking like they ran straight into a brick wall, so we HAD to switch ALL the time. Bayless has a lot to improve on, but he can still become a far better defender than our previous PGs.

I like Blake, he has done a lot for this team the past couple years, but I think Bayless should be getting the backup PG minutes at this point, with Miller and Rudy (or Martell) starting.
