Baker "runs" the offense...lets Rose be more of a shooting guard?Will be interesting to see how this works and how many minutes they actually let Baker play. He is also on the floor for D, I would assume.
Definitely worth a try..I thought about that a while back as well..Giving him a chance to be the guy that makes the extra pass like JKidd did a few years back..Lee off the bench gives him more opportunity to score...
It's obvious that this move is to address Rose woe's as a PG as well as defending Schroeder. Baker is faster, better on defense.
First game against Schroeder, Rose shut him down..
what about the 2nd game
Rose got burned..But you can't put a rook on Schroeder..
Baker is guarding Bazemore.

well they have been going under screens...hawks have missed some easy shots.
Rose continues to play PG instead of SG

KUZ guarding Bazemore..You can't tell becuase KUZ hasn't been close to him on any three attempt yet...Baker is guarding TimJr.

Yeah, I think Baker is more of a SG, or at least a combo guard like Langston Galloway. I didn't get why people assumed Rose would slide to SG. They don't even have the balls to suspend him for going AWOL... they're going to tell Rose he's not the starting PG anymore? LOL.
Damn you NBA TV Blackout.

He had some good looks tho and I suspect he might be just a little tight. I don't have a problem with it tho.

Well, they're switching a lot. Who the hell can tell what they're doing, going under screens and switching and packing the paint. The Rambis special.
Rose continues to throw TOs flying in the air
Baker nice and warmed up now and he comes right out

Hornacek often seems to take guys out right as they hit a few shots. I don't get it.

He's not likely to change at this point but it is strange that he continues to do it.
Lee showing no signs of pouting yet.
Melo dribbling around through triple teams while his teammates stand open on the perimeter.
This team is a joke.
Cartman718 wrote:Lee showing no signs of pouting yet.
He's a pro. I don't expect him to see this as a demotion. I'm sure Jeff explained his reasoning and I doubt he broached it as a negative thing but rather a necessary move to try and bring some balance to the rotations.
Alright, sorry for the negativity. I'm not wasting my day off watching this game. Go Knicks! I'm out.

If it's one guys mistake why blame the rest of the team?

Man I want Melo doing that more trying to create for others from the top of the key..He is our best passer..
