Um...Brooks totally had his way with Bayless last night in the 4 minutes they faced each other.
Frankly, I was surprised Jerryd couldn't stay with him or curb his passing in the least.
To be fair though, the game was over at that point so Brooks was able to sit back, get a couple of quick assists and a 3 without having to penetrate much, and Jerryd obviously came in cold off the bench. He did draw a foul on Brooks with a drive, and made 20% of our FT's (2).

That happens all the time as dudes go up in the level of competition they are playing. They think they can sit back and time it and just let their athletic ability do the rest, but then they find out the guys they are playing against are much better and much more athletic then they thought.

Maybe I let my objectivity cloud my homerism?
Nope, checked the play by play and it's clear Brooks was not bothered by Bayless in the least and got more assists per minute against him than any other guard.
But if by "stayed in front of him" you mean "backed way off and let him shoot 3's" then you might have something there.
No knock against Bayless, as few SG's can guard any PG adequately.
