    It actually makes no sense. Batum is distributing the ball very well with the starting unit, and LMA's play has greatly improved over early in the season with Nic as a second passing option, or even a primary option at this point.

    Nic is playing a poor man's Scottie Pippen the last 3 weeks. It's amazing to see him end up with 5+ assists somewhat consistently these days.

    I don't like that he's over-passing and turning down open shots in the lane.

    I'm sure the balance in decision making will come with time.

    Accelerating Lillard's growth is the plan. The other rookies are secondary.

    Papanikolaou will be the starter when he comes over.

    Just you watch.

    If Wes starts in the Lakers game, we win. Claver was awful. They put Nash on him and Nash wasn't really guarding him at all. Claver wouldn't shoot and it killed us. Wes would've been nailing threes which would've opened up everything for everyone else.

    No to Claver in starting lineup.
