    So Leonard, Davis, Plumlee, and Vonleh would split up 23 minutes?

    We're obviously looking for a trade somewhere. We're too deep.

    There doesn't appear to be anything available though.

    He re-upped with them already. Something like 3/42

    Who would you pull minutes from? Could probably drop Harkless to 25, but I'd like to see Crabbe and Turner both at 30ish minutes.

    So you would pay Crabbe and Turner 17.5 million and 17 million respectively, to play less than 30 minutes per game?

    It's not a matter of minutes per pay. It's a matter of what's best for the team.

    You don't bench Davis or Plumlee to give Turner and Crabbe a few extra minutes with the only justification being because of their contract...

    Plumlee is out, my friend. As soon as Meyers comes back, he will become unnecessary. Plus, we don't want to pay him the quan next summer.

    I think we should trade him now. You don't bench him if he's kept though just to give minutes based on a contact.

    If he gets traded for a draft pick then:

    Lillard (36) / McCollum (12)
    McCollum (24) / Crabbe (24)
    Turner (30) / Moe (12) / Crabbe (6)
    Aminu (26) / Davis (12) / Moe (10)
    Ezeli (24) / Leonard (16) / Davis (8)

    If you look at the averages, Lillard and CJ have been right around 35 minutes per game. Lillard has been near that 35 minutes per game for three years.

    In other thoughts, we definitely are too deep right now and it looks to be a setup for a future trade
