Bass in Yinka-mode

Brandon Bass in no passing zone - BostonHerald.com

If you were among the 18,624 at TD Garden last night, consider yourself fortunate. You got to see one-third of Brandon Bass' assists for the 2011-12 season.

Cue the laugh track, eh?

Commence with the No Pass Bass humor.

"We told him he was threatening Yinka," said Celtics [team stats] coach Doc Rivers, chuckling loudly as he dredged up the late 7-footer Yinka Dare and his four total assists in four NBA seasons from 1994-98.

Reminds me

of a conversation that supposedly took place between Ainge and Mchale.

Danny supposedly asked Mchale why he didn’t kick out passes from the post when he was covered or double-teamed when he was wide open.

Mchale’s response was that even though he was double-covered his percentage was (something like 56%) and that Danny’s was (something like 44%). Since he scored at a better rate than Danny, why should he pass the ball.

The way Bass is shooting, let him hog the ball a bit.

Most of Bass' shots...

Are high percentage. Most of the times he gets a pass and he’s either will have a wide open shot or a big hole in the defense he can exploit. The way he’s shooting, I’d say let him have it.
