    CJ and Dame gave up 23 points to the Warriors in roughly 7 minutes. Dame and Turner gave up 13 points in less than 5 minutes. Slightly better D but the scoring dropped from 12 points in 7 minutes to 7 points in 5. Neither combo is going to beat a good team playing like that.

    No one can post up and kick in the starting line up. Turner could.

    What are you talking about? Have you ever heard of Mason Plumlee?

    Plumlee really isn't a "dump the ball into him and let him work" kind of guy. He's a pretty good passer in the open court, but one thing ain't t'other.

    I actually kinda like this idea. Something has got to give at this point, we need a wake up call and evan turner could be an ideal starting 2 with lillard. I got no problems with it honestly

    "Something has got to give" isn't a good enough reason to bench CJ. There's moves that will make things even worse, and that's one of them.
