Certainly true, it was merely an example to show that I think ability is more important than style of play.
I don't think I want all three on the court together. I'd rather see them in a three-guard rotation. Two of the three on the court at a time.
Also, while I'm not 100% certain it improves the team today (how Bayless will play over a stretch of games is still uncertain), I think that it's a worthwhile risk in order to both let Bayless develop and allow Portland to evaluate how much value he can bring to the team next season.
I have no problem with Bayless getting more minutes. With Rudy and Outlaw out, he's going to get 20-28 mpg for the rest of the season, as he should. I feel he's needed off of the bench, for reasons I posted earlier in this thread. The Blazer fans are going to get an extended look at Bayless. I say let him settle into a role, become a contributer, and assess at later points as the season progresses.
