    Crabbe is a better long range shooter, but Henderson is a better scorer. He is going to get to the paint more unless his hip issues makes him gun shy of contact.

    Henderson is also much more athletic, something Olshey and Stotts are really valuing right now

    As of today if I were Stotts I'd start Dame, Gerald Henderson, Al-Farouk Aminu, Meyers Leonard and Mason Plumlee, B team is CJ, Crabbe, Harkless, Davis.Vonleh

    He's probably a year or two away, but you have to like his potential. That being said, I lost all ability to accurately rate SL after Batum. Some players just play better with real pros.

    In case it wasn't clear, I meant "looks like" in terms of facial features, not "looks like" in terms of game.

    Our non-Orton starters looked like NBA players.

    My Starters:
    Dame/Henderson/Aminu/Davis/Plumlee
    Bench:
    CJ/CJ/Crabbe/Vonleh/Biebs

    That being said, we'll have some interesting small ball lineups:
    Dame/CJ/Henderson/Aminu/Davis

    Tim Frazier for MVP!
    Averaging a league leading 8.0 APG, and a whopping 7.0 rpg.
    He's averaging 12.5 PPG on .459 shooting.

    He's playing great, but would need a 20+ point game to be in actual contention.

    I don't understand. Both players were ready to play for Portland but they were restricted and their teams matched. :dunno:
