    Reaves would give us more than Baze. Guess he’s getting his minutes actually with 27 against Charlotte vs 14 for Bazemore.

    Ya Baze looks like trash. His D isn't good and his offense doesn't even exist.

    He hasn't looked good since Lebron's been out. Think it has to do with him playing up a position. We NEED him to get it together though, at least until THT comes back

    Nothing worse than a shooting guard that can't shoot.

    Maybe if due to shortage of bigger dudes the SG is bumped up to SF and is too small to defend there really plus still can’t shoot? And has an undrafted rookie doing all those things better, who is big enough to play there, taking his minutes?

    K9 is going to go from starter to only blowout minutes at this rate.

    Monks scoring, Reaves defense/passing/glue game, Bradely defense/smarts, THT's the most potential are all going to pushing him down the rotation

    Bazemore has length and can guard 4 positions. Right now others are hot, Bazemore's time will come. Its a long season

    I can’t wait until THT and Ariza get back so we don’t have to watch Bazemore struggle out there. Man, he’s been cold.

    Yup, there's a difference between "can" and "does". I mean, to be fair, sometimes he does defend multiple positions well, but lately he's not doing much of anything. Well... there's always Monk. And Bradley. Also Ellington and Nunn, when he comes back.

    Baze has had a disappointing start to the season. I’m fine with him being cold from 3, but his defence hasn’t been crash hot either.

    anyone else think he's maybe playing hurt? he looks visibly slower to me than he did in the preseason/past seasons.

    I wonder how some guys used to more minutes are dealing with the lack of playing time. Some guys play better with more minutes.

    I wrote this post, and then looked up his stats. He's not playing less minutes. He's just playing at an all time worst level apparently. This is his 6th team in 4 years. Maybe he's tired.

    Basura.

    There is one thing worse than a shooting guard that can't shoot. A shooting guard that can't shoot and can't defend.

    K9 has rabies and it’s causing him to miss wide open shots, since he doesn’t like needles :LLLLLebronlaughing:

    Needs to be benched for now.

    K9 is just a wildly inconsistent player. Guy can shoot like an all star for a game and then shoot like Westbrook.
