It's Clear, This Team Needs A....

Martell is learning to be that "other" go-to guy. He's hit more clutch shots at crucial times during this season than his previous three years combined (IMO).

Regarding the "one-dimensonal"-ness (not a word, obviously) of Rudy & Blake, but similarity to Roy of Miller & Bayless, aren't we taking both sides of the same argument here? Do you want a go-to guy who--with the ball in his hands--can create his own shot (Bayless) or create shots for others (Miller), or one who will play off the ball and nail a shot that is created for him (Blake/Rudy/Webster)? Whichever one we want/need, we have it; what we need is to define what we want in that spot and play to those strengths.

Let Bayless/Rudy/Oden/Batum grow a little and they can be a second option. Bayless has the best chance, I think everyone can agree that shot looked good once it left, but just came up short. One of these guys can grow into that role.
