Bayless went for 29 points in 29 minutes (off the bench) for Memphis tonight as well ... both are very capable players, but a bit inconsistent, and not steady minutes to prove themselves, unfortunately.

The only thing inconsistent regarding Dalembert is his usage. He has performed well with big #s on more than one occasion (14/13/4 in 24 minutes vs Noah and the Bulls last week).The inconsistency in minutes was because he was in Skiles doghouse (a black hole from which few ever leave)and with Boylan, one of Skiles disciples, he has also been given incosistent minutes. (Following that Bulls performance, which only happened because Sanders was sick, the next two games Dalembert was relegated to 12 minutes and then 6 minutes languishing on the bench because Sanders returned.)The reason he was in Skiles doghouse was that he wasn't playing consistent hard defense and working on the glass.That's what we're talking about when we refer to inconsistency.

In both Phoenix, Chicago and Milwaukee Skiles has parted from his clubs midseason, and not on the best terms. In his latest parting, Bucks players such as Ersan Ilyasova, Monta Ellis, and Drew Gooden might be secretly applauding the separation, if not on record.Center Samuel Dalembert, who was acquired in a steal of a deal last summer to hold down the team’s center position is going on record, even if he’s acting quite tactfully, in discussing his 32-game run with Skiles. Sam went from starter to scrub with Skiles after a shootaround conversation gone wrong last fall, and nobody seems to know why. Seems like he easily could be as much if not more to blame for Dalembert's banishment. Skiles is an inordinately stubborn guy who alienates people wherever he goes.Free Samuel Dalembert!!

I watched a lot of that game and the announcers were talking about how they liked Bayless off the ball at SG. I'm not so sure about that idea, he has defensive issues at the point as it is.It is shocking how unproductive he's been compared to his time in Toronto last year.
