I think from game 1 this season, the Celtics have been "better with Baynes."
Stevens plays him when he plays him for his reasons. It was already posted that some stats indicate lower offensive output with Baynes on the floor which I don't know what that means because the Celtics have basically "won" all of their games and in 5 losses, have not been blown out...ever.
Drummond never got it going last night and his team mates never did either. Pistons looked spent last night which is why it helps to assess player performance by watching the game not the stat line.
Has it already been posted that Bayne's minute stats relate to injury? Hell, Amir Johnson's entire career in Boston featured "managed minutes"...you could hear his knees creaking from Causeway street.
Has Baynes ever been on the court for the last five minutes of a Celtic's game?
Fantastic addition to the team...the guy plays way bigger than he is and here's to Stevens figuring out how to best use him to help beat the Cavs.
