    Portland has all 15 spots filled. Who is going to be in the suit and tie on the bench?

    Big men: Leonard or Freeland. Does Olshey put his lottery pick on the DNP list? How much time to either Leonard or Freeland get with Kaman in the mix and does T-Rob ever get to play? From the press conference it sounds like a 3-man rotation of Lopez/LA/Kaman.

    Wing/Guard: Wright is probably safe so likely is it Claver and Crabbe? Are CJ and Barton going to get any minutes behind Dame/Wes/Blake?

    I think the first two for sure and the 3rd will rotate between Freeland and Leonard depending on matchups and on who is continuing to improve.

    Claver/Crabbe and then its the person who loses out in TC camp of Leonard/Freeland/Trob.

    Given your reputation, this isn't suprising. Just the norm for you.

    To me it's Crabbe, Leonard and CJ..Freeland is better than Leonard and Barton or Blake are better than CJ Claver and Freeland are better than folks think. Stotts like Dorell so he's going to play, Robinson will play..I'm not entirely convinced that CJ isn't just another Nolan Smith at this point. He has a lot to prove from my view although fans seem to like him alot.

    Well, CJ is no prime D-Wade and he never will be. I like him better off our bench than Mo though.

    The battle for minutes between CJ and Will, and the contrast in styles, will be interesting to watch.

    Leonard and Crabbe should be in street clothes. If Crabbe can eventually beat out Clavier then switch them. Meyers is a nice guy with a good attitude but he's not an NBA quality player, doesn't belong on a roster.

    CJ was the best 3pt shooter on the team after Wes and Dam. Very encouraging for rookie with injuries.
