Title: A Bass Deal
Post by: fanofgreen on December 31, 2012, 12:57:59 AM
I am done with Bass. I don't understand how a person can be so clueless defensively and so one-dimensional offensively.

Not one post move!  A horrible post defender! And I'm not going to discuss his off-the-ball defense nor pick'n'roll coverage skills (lack thereof).

I mean how can u go 8 years as a power forward in the NBA and not have developed at least a jump-hook by now?

Ok, enough ranting for now.

Bass can't be dealt until Jan. 15th, so I couldn't put this deal through the trade machine to see if it actually works.

Bass - $6mil to Denver Nuggets

             and

T. Mozgov - $3mil to Boston
A. Randolph - $1.6mil to Boston



Boston gets rid of Bass and adds Young Athletic Size to its roster. Denver gets rid of two sparingly used players who haven't been able to fit in to how the Nuggets style of play, and adds a serviceable big with a mid-range game.

Thoughts?

If Bass is this awful, why do the Nuggets give up two younger players to get him?

Bass is a fine bench player.  He was never brought here with the intention of starting.  He's a role player.  He was supposed by like our 3rd string big man... replacing Glen Davis.

I am looking at it as two players who are both averaging 6mins in just 10 games so far this season.
For a little comparison, Barbosa has played in more games than Mozgov and Randolph combined this season
