That first dunk of the game was impressive. Not the power, but the quickness of the move. That was a nice up and under that we haven't seen from him yet.
I was really impressed with Roy, Oden and Bayless last game... Aldridge and Batum had off nights.. Rudy was fine, he is going to be great though... Outlaw didn't play too well again, imo. I liked Frye and Pryz a lot. Overall though, we did not play well on the offensive end. Very impressed with our D and rebounding, but our offense just wasn't there. We have to continue to get better. But i hope that we rest our main 3 players today as its the final game and we got a back to back... i would just really like to make sure we are relatively healthy goin' into the year. I really miss Martell... I think i'd start Batum just because I like Rudy off the bench a lot. the Sergio/Bayless matchup is going to be fun to watch. It is still Sergio's though, imo. He is a better PG. I think Bayless is more battling for the starters minutes with Blake, as i think he would be amazing with Roy... and they would easily be one of, if not the best backcourts in the NBA in a couple years, imo.
Watching the game that is completely true. If I was king (coach), I would have Roy as PG in the first unit and Rudy as PG with the second unit and maybe get some help from the little guards in bringing the ball up. Everything flows better when going through Roy and Rudy. Bayless looked good, but it was alway looking for his own shot. Why fight it.
Yeah, well when Bayless is in he would dribble the ball up the court and defend PGs, but Rudy or Roy would be the ones that are the playmakers and set things up. I think that was the plan with Bayless... he CAN set things up, and would sometimes, but he would be more effective off the ball just as Roy/Rudy would be more effective ON the ball. Which is why i think Bayless is fighting for Blake minutes more so than Sergio's.
