    He's definitely looking like more of a keeper than Meyers at this point.

    A pox on both our power forwards. I'd like to see the lion's share of our minutes go to the small lineup of Lillard/CJ/Crabbe/Aminu/Plumlee (or Davis).

    I think Stotts is doing the right thing--giving Leonard and Vonleh both a chance early on, and if they both blow he finishes out with small ball.

    Damning with faint praise.

    I don't see either a key contributor on an NBA squad. I think we need to move Meyers this season while he has some sort of value.

    Stotts should tank the season and start Henderson and Kaman.

    I like what i'v seen from Noah. He is a project but all the tools are there and he has shown flashes. Some young bigs can take a long time to develop and when you missed training camp and as much time as Noah did, then you come back to a team where the coach is coaching for his job its no wonder he got buried on the bench. Same thing happened to CJ and people want to get rid of him like a bad habit because he wasn't great off the bat. We need patience, this year we are't doing jack shit and it should be a year where we give players like Noah a good amount of minutes then see where they stand towards the trade deadline and the end of the year, not 1/4th into a season where they are on a new team and new system.
