I hope he's not the next Channing. We let him walk only to have him become a good player somewhere else. He blogs like Channing too. He's playing with more effort than both Steve and Andre as far as I'm concerned.
Jerryd is easily most insightful blogger in the NBA. I'm liking him more as a result of his blog. Great stuff.
I'm still not sure if there's going to be a home for him here. He seems like a guy who likes to score the ball, and with Brandon handling the ball so much, I'm not so sure spotting Bayless up in the coffin corner waiting to receive a kickout is the best use of his abilities. Having said that, i still like him quite a bit as a prospect if no other reason than he seems to get to the rim at will and draws fouls like a madman (10 per36 to be exact) and he at least plays very hard on defense -- whether or not to great effect remains to be seen. All things considered he seems to be doing a good job of keeping his situation in perspective, hopefully he gets a shot and makes good on it.
...damn, I was hoping he would be demanding Blake to be traded away [along with TO] so that he could learn how to be a true PG from a savvy durable vet
We confined Miller, no reason we can't do the same for Bayless. I just like that he goes out there and plays hard on a consistent basis.
i think the reason why he gets so much fouls is because hes told to play extremley tough defense because nate knows hes got 6 fouls to burn with bayless and with him getting short amount of minutes i think hes trying everything he can do to make the best of it. i think if he knew he was getting say 20 minutes or so he wouldnt foul at such a high rate. i want bayless as at least back up
Agree. Blogs remind me of just how stupid these guys are. I already know that they didn't make it here because of their IQs, but sometimes I need a reminder.
He doesn't seem stupid to me at all. Tell this guy that this blog reminds you of how stupid Jerryd is: "You're a good writer man. And some of the points you bring up, you seriously just made me open my eyes man. I became disabled my freshman year of college and have basically been pity-partying my life away since. Reading this blog entry, you make me want to go out and do everything I've been shying away from the past 6 years. Thank you. I don't know if this entry will completely change my outlook, but right now man you got me excited for tomorrow, which I haven't said in 6 years. Thanks JB."
