  • The Actual Facts About Bayless' Assists Without The Smell Test or Seeing Eye Dog Test

    Since the podcast mentioned at least one set of numbers I will also present at least one set of numbers

    Bayless is averaging 13.5 mpg

    Of all players in the NBA averaging 15 mpg or less Bayless is #2 in Assists Per Game.

    He is ahead of

    Jeff Teague
    C.J. Watson
    M. Chalmers
    A.C. Law

    among others.

    http://www.basketball-reference.com/...r_by=ast_per_g

    If you raise it to players who are playing between 20 – 25 mpg vs Bayless 13.5 mpg Bayless is ranked 8th in the NBA is Assists Per Game

    He is ahead of these 20 – 25 mpg guys in Assists Per Game

    Eric Maynor
    Steve Blake
    Will Bynum
    Earl Watson
    S. Livingston

    among others

    http://www.basketball-reference.com/...r_by=ast_per_g


    Now, compare Bayless Assists per 36 minutes with some other NBA Point Guards.

    2010-11 Numbers
    ----------------------
    Bayless 6.8 Assists per 36 Minutes.
    Collison 5.1 Assists per 36 Minutes

    Bayless is also a year younger than Collison

    http://www.basketball-reference.com/...collida01.html

    Over his two plus seasons in the NBA his Assists per 36 Minutes have continued to go up.

    08-09------4.4
    09-10------4.7
    10-11------6.8

    Will they continue to go up?

    Compare Bayless Assists per Game at Age 22 which he is with Calderon at 24 and Billups at 22

    Calderon----7.0
    Bayless------6.8 so far in 10-11
    Billups-------4.2

    Now lets look at Calderon and Billups best in their career year Assists Per 36 Minutes.

    Calderon's career best-------9.8
    Billups' career best----------8.6

    Will Bayless Assists per 36 Minutes continue to go up to 10 or more?

    Will Bayless Assists per Game eventually get to 10 or more?

    Only time will tell what the facts will be.

    People can cut this upside down, inside out, left to right, right to left top to bottom, bottom to top or diagonal and even give it the smell test and seeing eye dog test, but what I presented are the facts.

    Im a gigantic Bayless fan so you're not going to get much of an argument out of me.

    With that being said...let's just wait for it.

    I just happen to have a feeling we are going to be very very pleased w what we see.

    But i also wouldn't be surprised if Bayless wasn't a bargaining chip for Nash. I assume this because I've heard Bayless and his family have been friends with the Gentry's as well as the Colangelo's for quite some time.

    This kid was the biggest deal in phx bball since Mike Bibby. And I think most of my friends back in phx would be very eager to get their hands on him.

      Why would the Raps want Nash??? They are rebuilding, and Nash is O-L-D. I love the guy, and he is a great player, but it makes no sense to trade for him. Phoenix would want some valuable assets in return (Bayless and others), and Toronto would be stuck in that no-man's land of not rebuliding and not contending...like it has been the past few years.

      So everyone cut the talk of trading for veteran players. Lets see BC use expiring contracts and useful vets (Peja, Reggie) to trade for developing young players and draft picks. And we should be eating some bad vet contracts (a la OKC) that net some good picks in return.

        I don't think this specific team needs Nash. But the team does need to fill seats and draw up excitement.

          As much as I want to laugh at this post, there's this tingling sensation on the back of my neck that indicates that there's something up BC's sleeve. I just have this feeling.

            Ok. But i do hope you can differentiate between "i wouldn't be surprised" and "you can take it to the bank.".

            I also *hope* that BC let's this current roster play out a little.

              I have never watched Bayless play, and many have told me he is like Jack, a 2 in a PGs body. But these stats are nice to see, I think we'll soon find out if he is a good passer, or at least a decent one.

                Nash is old. You really think management is that incompetent that they would sell the future on the premise of adding more seats this season? In the process they would be dooming the franchise for years and reducing attendance they next 3 years.

                Also, what makes you think Nash wants to come here? (Non-rhetorical question)

                He wants to win a championship or at least have chance. This team does not, right now.

                Nash does not live in Toronto or even Canada during the off-season. He lives in NYC. What makes you think someone from Victoria holds Toronto in such a fond place in their heart that they would forego a chance in win in the dying years of their career to come here?

                We need young players with their best years ahead of them, not greybeards who reaching the end of their careers.

                    I'm not a big stats guy. I like watching games and drawing conclusions from what I see. I pay attention to stats but don't go out of way to do a lot of research. That's why I appreciate when posters like Buddhafan take the time and bring to light statistics that are interesting, relevant and timely.

                      The assists numbers mean nothing. Toronto's playstyle does not influence pg ast numbers in the slightest and when combined with our lack of shooting ability just adds more to the fact. At this point all we can rely on bayless to provide is a quicker, bigger, and younger body over jack.

                        Say what?

                        On second thought I think you have two big holes in your screen door.

                        The flag is up

                        I don't think that is funny

                        Buddahfan that is your lowest shot yet

                        Yea, yea it is

                            OK Buddha, it seems you're quite high on Bayless. But knowing your man-crush on Amir, who'd you rather ....?
