    I will say this about Mason though, he's a really smart player that is limited by his body and not his effort.

    Easy to root for.

    Which is why I want him relegated to a reserve role, not dealt.

    I agree, but I think he's getting 10M+ per year when his contract expires. Dunno if I want to pay that much for a backup.

    I don't think you'll actually have to pay.

    To be fair, 'Tone can be pretty funny at times though.
    Wheels: Gary Neal is a scorer, if nothing else.
    'Tone: No "if"...he's nothing else.

    I think most think of young as 23 and under as far as the NBA is concerned. Plumlee is nearly 26- most studies show physical peak between 27-29 so in the NBA concept he is more or less who he is physically. His development, if any will be between the ears/skill sets, and I can't recall the last time someone was able to grow THAT much beyond 25-26 years old in the NBA. Not unprecedented but not all that common either.

    Well, we've got a year and a half before we have that problem. If we have drafted/traded for/developed a center sufficiently capable of supplanting Mase by that point, I won't be too concerned about losing him.
