[外電] Lacking minutes, Bass hopes time will come
http://tinyurl.com/6nekh3
Brandon Bass is a fourth-year player, but he may be experiencing the
equivalent of a sophomore slump.
After the breakthrough of last season, when Bass finally proved he had NBA
ability after two years of sitting with New Orleans, not much has gone right
for the 6-8 forward in the first nine games of the Rick Carlisle era.

Bass has played fewer than 14 minutes in six of the last seven games. And his
numbers have dipped accordingly. He's averaging 5.9 points and 2.5 rebounds.
He had one rebound over a three-game period before Friday, when he had four.
Despite the drop-off from last year, when he averaged 8.3 points and 4.4
rebounds, Bass has the right outlook. The minutes aren't coming the way he'd
like. But he knows he hasn't earned them, either.
"I expect, with better play, the minutes will come back," he said. "Going
into the season, I put added pressure on myself to perform at a higher level
and be better than I was last year. I think I just need to go out and play."
Friday, he had an effective – albeit brief – stay on the court in the first
half.
"It's just my personality to always put more pressure on myself to be better
and play at a high level," he said. "But a lot of the players that do those
things, they just go out and play. And everything takes care of itself."
