    Why has Blake played twice as many minutes as Bayless yet he isn't half as productive right now....This is really beginning to piss me off...FREE BAYLESS

    Because Blakey is so good, are you not watching the games? He has a great talent of shooting and hitting the side of the backboard.

    On the season, Bayless shoots three times as many free throws as Blake, in a third of the minutes.

    That's just sad.

    Yep I calculated out that Bayless would be averaging 16 pts and 4 assist per game if he got Blakes minutes. Not to mention shooting damn near .511 from the floor, which is completely awesome efficiency for a guard. Can you believe that?

    Those are Tony Parker type #s.

    He kinda plays the game like TP as well.

    This fuckin coaching staff needs to be thrown to the curb for messing with this guy's talent.

    It's not just Blake. Andre has been hit and miss as well. Bayless should start, Andre should back, Blake should be traded. Andre should be traded as well if a good deal comes along.

    Bayless is playing great, Blake is playing bad....Yet blake plays is on the court twice as much as JB...It isn't rocket science...Give Bayless Blakes minutes. End of story.

    Curiously...

    Blake shot 4-8 with 5 boards and 4 assists and 2 steals in 38 minutes. He was +/- = -2.
    Bayless was 4-5 with 1 board and 2 assists and 1 steal in 17 minutes. He was -10.

    Absolutely meaningless. We watched the game.

    Bayless was the only only one who cared.

    You're right that I can't judge "who cared" but I do think the coaches know the +/- during the game.

    1-2 vs. 6-7 for Bayless.

    Don't get me wrong, I have zero personal attachment to Blake or Nate, or Bayless for that matter. If you're going to lose by 10, you may as well play the young guy to get him experience.
