So the musical chairs game at backup PG continues. Its only Mid March.

[MIXUM]

I dont know who looks like a bigger disgrace. Pritchard, Nate, Sergio?

Pritchard - Must have known how bad Sergio and Bayless were. Yet did nothing.

Nate - After almost 6 months still cant decide.

Sergio - After 3 years still cant shoot, defend or finish.

Tough call... wait ... all of the above?

Bayless gets a pass cause hes a rook but damn its ugly when they play. With that said, i guess it really depends on what type of game we are playing on who plays.

 

[tlongII]

42 wins.

Of the three, I'd say Pritchard is clearly the worst option at backup PG.

 

[MIXUM]

you beat kingspeed to it.

 

[alex42083]

Guaranteed winning season.

 

[Rodolfo]

....seriously.

 

[BlazersBlood]

KP is obviously a retard because he didn't get us Deron WIlliams for Sergio & RLEC at the deadline. Who gave that bum a job?

RLEC was huge value that Pritchard forgot about and Sergio was one GM's trash but another GM's treasure.

How does that NOT equal Deron Williams?

Because KP is KP?

"KP teh asshole!"

Yeah I'm a blazer fan so I enjoy watching them win.

As opposed to bitching about a victory. Get a life.

No doubt. Any win is always a good day to be a Blazer. Life's too short to be grumpy and acting like a bitchy girl all the time.

The backup PG's are atrocious.

I fail to see what KP sees in Sergio. He'll never be an effective PG because he can't shoot, finish at the rim, and score in general. The guy has a hard time finishing a layup for fuck sakes.

Bayless just isn't ready. Not even close.

The fact that we've been rumored to be after Conley, Andre Miller, Mike Bibby, and Ramon Sessions proves that KP probably feels the same.

WTF? Pink? Does Choo Choo mean FU FU?

I'm confident he'll get it done in the off season, Sergio's rear must be hurtin from riding the pine so long, especially after watching Bayless struggle..

I gotta quote this again because it proves you are not a real fan.

 

[Nikolokolus]

glad you guys enjoy beating the grizz on the road

You're right. A loss would have been much more satisfying.

 

[julius]

Sorry, it's the truth. KP is KP, and he's to blame for how horrible the season is this year. We should have a minimum of 70 wins by now. KP should be ashamed by his actions (or lack thereof!)

Here’s the deal on the backup point guard thing:

They’re both good enough to play backup point guard minutes in the NBA. But not at the same time. As it stands, by using both guys and switching impulsively between them, neither one is doing much.

Man, Nate — pick a horse and ride him! Either one, I don’t care. Just decide which guy is best for this team right at this moment and stay with him. Show some confidence in him. Don’t yank him or steal his second-half minutes if he doesn’t play well in the second quarter. Nobody can play with one eye on the bench, frightened that his first mistake will land him a quick exit from the game.

Sorry, but the indecisiveness is not working.

But Deron is Deron....

I'm not convinced KP sees much in Sergio, we just don't have any other options. We are spoiled by having great backups in Joel, Travis, Martel and Rudy. Many teams are lucky to have 1 player at those levels. It's not easy to pickup a great backup and there is always a cost.

I have however started to second guess giving up Jarrett Jack last offseason. He could run the point for stretches, but more importantly he was able to drive and create his own shot. Now that burden is starting to overload Roy.

I always thought that Jack was given a bum rap - especially by the clueless Sergio brigade (as was clearly shown this year) - but I still think that if KP thinks Bayless is a Jack on steroids - he knows what he is talking about - so Sergio was nothing more than a place holder and someone to ease Rudy's transition as Bayless learns on the job. 16 more games + however long we go in the playoffs before he is shipped or gets the 3rd spot for good. We can live with it.

I have faith in Bayless becoming the real deal sooner or later.

It was Jack's terrible decision making that drove him out of town. The guy couldn't run a fast break to save his life.

I sort of agree ... although I think this is going to be a case of more later rather than sooner.

Jerryd's confidence has looked super low the past couple of weeks; super tentative and unsure of what to do with himself out there on the court; tonight wasn't much to see, but maybe with Nate deciding to go with one or the other of Sergio or Jerryd -- and frankly I didn't much care who it was as long as it was one or the other -- we'll see a jump in his comfort level, so he's not playing so tight and afraid to make a mistake for fear of losing his minutes.

I've been a pretty big Nate supporter, but this splitting minutes thing since Blake came back seems to have shaken both of the backups into a shell of their former selves. Not a great move by MacMillan.

Now the whole TEAM is so bad in the fast break game, it's actually becoming comical to me. But honestly, I was a major Jack basher last season, but I sorta miss him this year. I"ll take his traveling and stepping out of bounds. If we had him as a backup PG, we'd be a much better team. Bayless needs a few years because right now he's playing like he has red hot chill peppers shoved up his ass.
