    We really do look better with him starting and Aminu looks WORLD'S better at the 4. Good coaching. I have to wonder, though, if he was forced to start Vonleh for as long as he did for development sake and now that it's winning time, things are different.

    I always tell people that's why the Moda Center is my favorite arena. Some arenas, you don't even get rebounds! Just points and fouls. Moda Center has it all. Love it.

    Aminu's a good stretch 4. Just a good enough shooter to pull a defender to the 3 point line, and versatile enough on defense to pull it off. Although I like having him available to defend star guards/SFs. I think he's capable of being an elite defender, but we don't really use him that way. Maybe I'm just overestimating his abilities.

    It's a fair inquiry, and one that probably has some truth to it.

    Has to have been a mandate from Neil. Thank you, Terry for finally realizing that having such a huge offensive liability in Vonleh for the first 6 mins of each half takes a toll.

    The Autistic child of my upstairs neighbor has decided TODAY to have her scheduled freak-out. Not this week (haven't heard a peep out of her), not last week.....but TODAY during a Blazer game.

    Fun. Just swell.

    Yes, but he can be restricted as long as we extend our QO. We can be in control of his future if we desire

    Stotts said the move happened for the last Dallas game. He wanted Aminu to mirror Dirk's minutes. I would think he could do it against Durant too, if that's where we're headed.
