I know we love Bazz, but do you think he starts over Beverly?

Yes, I have never been impressed with the Punk Beverly. He is all defense and very little offense. He can at least be a back up there as they had Jason Terry running the point in the playoffs. Jason Terry is not a point guard at this stage of his career. Not that he ever really was one. I still think Dallas and Houston would be his best fits.
 
Bazz is not a better player right now than Beverly, I would love to know the number of Heat games you guys watched last year that have ya'll ready to annoint him as a starter on so many teams. Bazz had a very good stretch when he was closing out games and putting up dbl figures but he still has a long way to go in pretty much every area of his game right now. I think the fact that the Heat was in the market for JJ Barrera before he re-signed with the Mavs lets you know they're not very high on him.

Mo Williams is more of a 2 guard than a true PG. I can see him playing a lot of 2 guard at Cleveland and with Irving always getting hurt I can see him getting minutes there. I do believe Dallas and Houston would be his best teams to join.

I agree, Dallas needs help at PG more than any contending team. Go were you can win, play some, and grow your game.

Bazz isn't even as good as Patty Mills right now

I just think he'd be a great fit for the spurs offense where there's a lot of ball movement and open shots. With Bazz's craftiness, playmaking ability that he flashed in Miami, and his perimeter shot he would flourish in a backup role there. They used to run two guards for their bench lineup with Patty Mills and Corey Joseph. Corey Joseph isn't there any more so that leaves a spot for Bazz if he ended up there. I'm sure Pop would coach him up way better than Erik Spoelstra.

"The punk Beverly"? Right off the bat, discredits your entire evaluation...

Joseph was 6'3" with a solid build and was a good defender, you could get away with him defending SGs at times, not gonna really work putting two 6'0" pgs together with the type of defensive deficiencies Bazz has right now. I have no idea where Bazz's game is headed right now because he fell off pretty badly after a nice surge(maybe the hernia had something to do with it), but he's gotta show alot of improvement to slot ahead of some of the PGs you guys are naming in this thread. Right now I hope he becomes a Patty Mills type, and then build from there.

Was just reading the Heat may be trying to get Jamal Crawford off LAC. Since I'm sure it would make him very happy to be CP3's understudy, I will keep my fingers crossed that Bazz goes to LA in this trade that might happen
 
Lakers would be a good fit. Though as a Celts fan, I would be horribly conflicted I think he could do very well there.
 
Get him off the Heat and onto a team that doesn't have issues realizing that Bazz >>>>>>> Tyler Johnson

Bazz would do well in a guaranteed backup PG situation. The Heat were scared to play him over Chalmers and Cole and he never got into a groove in his rookie year

The bigger point is he's a better player than Shabazz and nothing but your own homerism would make you think otherwise.

Well even if he is better Houston needs a reliable back-up. He can definitely back-up there and improve into a starter. He is only a second year player right now.
 
Bazz would LOVE to go to Boston. Because I love, Bazz, I would love to see him go there. Selfishly, I am keeping my fingers crossed for Charlotte.

Because I love Bazz I 100% do not want him in Boston, which is tough to say because I'm a fan. The C's have Avery Bradley, Smart and Thomas locked up for multiple years and they used a first round pick on a PG with Terry Rozier.

Some teams that I think Bazz would do well with are BKN, Dallas, Denver, Detroit, Indiana, Washington and Milwaukee. I specifically would love to see the Bucks trade for Bazz. They have a very young up and coming team and he could beat out guys like MCW and Vasquez.
 
watched a few games after the kemba championship season. bazz had really good chemistry with drummond. would love to see him go to Detroit
 
Anywhere but Miami, the kid has no future in South Beach, with Coach Spo on the sidelines

Oh ya,Where at? NBA TV has lakers/Knicks

Glad he's doin his thing, the idea spot for him is behind Dragic, be he's gonna have to earn, I don't feel like the Heat have much confidence in him at the moment.

Bazz finishes with 20 pts 6 rebounds 6 assists and 3 steals on 7-13 shooting 2/3 from 3... Solid game, terrible foul call on heat at the end and nuggets won on a 3 the next play... Bazz also had a nice alley oop set up near the end which two heat players went for and ran into eachother...
