    You realize that garbage time, especially for an aggressive driver like Bayless, should be the easiest time to make an impression? Playing against scrubs? Should have been his moment(s) to shine, but he didn't.

    Those shots are all forced jumpers at the last minute because Sergio can not create. There's time to get the assist if Roy/Aldridge bails him out, of course.

    I don't know what you've been watching, but a standard Sergio possession nowadays is for him to dribble out 20 seconds of the clock, then force up a shot, or pass it to someone else who has to force up a shot. Just because there's time to get an assist, doesn't mean he's putting them in a good position to score.

    Sergio will be seeing zero playing time once Blake is back, so might as well showcase him now, because soon he will be gone, and the team will be better for it.
