    I would absorb Rudy Gay. Who gives at fuck at this point. We'll suck with or without him, at least we might be able to trade him for something later if he rehabs his value.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Leaving aside whether they can get DeRozan (I think Green would be a reasonable signing), I'd start Davis at power forward over Leonard and move Vonleh to backup center.

    I would offer up Kaman/CJ for DeRozan. Supposedly they want to move him before he gets max money. Maybe that's not enough though :dunno:

    Why start Davis and Plumlee over Leonard and Vonleh? If we're going to suck we should at least do it right by playing the guys with the most potential.

    That would be an athletic and physical starting core. I like it!

    Is Vonleh a power forward or a center?

    Why don't we just pick up some UDFAS and just cut them at the end of the season.

    He can be either. He's as tall as Ed Davis, though, and heavier. I just think Davis is a nice fit in the starting lineup with Lillard.

    Who the fuck cares? Start him at small forward, he'll learn.

    In today's game Vonleh could probably play center. He's not that tall but he's got length.

    Well, if you're going to start the lad, shouldn't you put him in the position where he would be most likely to succeed?

    But seriously, if Vonleh and Leonard don't get 28+ minutes I'm going to take a bat to Terry Stotts's head.

    You're right.

    Lillard
    Vonleh
    Davis
    Leonard
    Plumlee

    Let's do it.
