Put him in the starting lineup and he's a different player. Not just lately. Was the same when we first acquired him. Not sure why, but theres a serious desceprancy between his stats coming off the bench vs. Starting.Last edited by Joey; Tue Apr 12, 2011, 09:02 AM.

But its actually "He's definitely played well if given the opportunity to start." Perdiod.

In my humble opinion, if a young player has some major mental block about coming off the bench, then he's probably not mature enough to be handed the keys in a starters role either. Especially if we're talking about the foreseeable future.
I thought last night's performance against the Bucks was actually a good indication of where Bayless is at. He ended up with a decent statline (20 pts, 5 assts, 4 rebs), but he also turned it over six times and went 7-20 from the floor. There was also the three back breaking turnovers in succession that essentially sealed the Raps fate.Last edited by Fully; Tue Apr 12, 2011, 11:05 AM.
