OK, I know, I am viewed as a huge detractor for Jerryd Bayless on this site. It was never that I thought JBay was a bad player. I just do not think he is or ever will be a point guard.

That said, he was just another lovable kind of guy. Gritty, determined, hardworking,  fun and fast. He will do well alongside a guy like Paul that is for sure. He will finally get a truly great opportunity prove himself by playing to his strengths rather than trying to develop his weaknesses.

I will miss the strut, the scream, the face. I will even miss the headlong barreling down the court from time to time, even though he did not keep his head up to see his wide open team mates.

Much like our last 3 players traded, Marty, Steve and Trout, your trade was the prudent move, not a problem of chemistry or effort, but one of need or fit.

Good luck Bayless, I really think this will be a much better opportunity for you.

Thank you JBay!
