    Blake is not in fact hurt. Nate simply asked him to step aside to give Jerryd and Sergio more minutes.

    I'm pretty happy to see bayless and sergio get some burn. We're not winning the championship this season, so i don't mind seeing some development. And i'm not convinced yet that Blake is much better.

    I wish Bayless had been aggressive late. He had played so well. 6 of 9 shooting. And then he deferred to Roy the end of the 4th and all OT. We should've gone to Bayless more. And Outlaw, despite his horrible night, should've taken the final shot.

    Bayless and Aldridge were by far our best offensive options last night. When we realized Roy didn't have it, we should have let Bayless and LMA play a 2 man game. Bayless could have easily had 20+ again, as he had 14 through 3, along w/ 4 boards.

    I sort of wonder if his first extended minutes didn't catch up to him, especially because he plays very hard on the defensive end?
