    He'd replace Plumlee as the starting center. Meyers is our PF, and Stotts would want his shooting to pair with either Davis or Plumlee inside.

    They were not happy about losing him. But they were still trying for LMA at the time

    All the same I think Stotts will keep him on what is a very potent bench

    One nice thing about both Aminu's and Davis' contracts is that they're front loaded, so they reduce each year freeing up more available cap room for the next couple of years.

    LMA leaving was such an amazing gift. He fucked up the West pretty good.

    His ice cold demeanor is awesome too. Gives Lillard a run for his money in that department.

    Davis showed a tremendous amount of value for this team, right now, as constructed. No denying that. He is a fucking cog. A valuable cog. A timely cog.

    I have no idea what this means.

    But Sly says you're so short you wouldn't be able to see my face.

    He's the Greg Anthony of our team, I think.

    Until something more major changes, I still see Plumlee starting and Davis finishing. That would seem to make sense too. Plumlee did a nice job in the first quarter of moving the ball and messing up the defense. But, when it's crunch time, you want Davis rebounding and defending.

    Like Sinobas said, it's not Meyers minutes he would take. He would just play more WITH Meyers. Stotts has been adamant (rightly so I believe) to play Plums or Davis with Meyers or Vonleh making sure an interior player is teamed with one who can stretch the floor.

    Davis is more of a rebounder and defensive stalwart but Plumlee is a brilliant passer for a big man racking up 6 assists last night which I think the starting lineup needs.

    Having that passing to go with our slashers is crucial.

    Which makes one wonder if Plumlee and Hendo will work well together ...

    I can't wait until we get Henderson back. I know some people have already written him off, but I think he's going to really round out our rotation nicely.

    He kinda reminds me of when the Blazers brought in Buck Williams. Seems to have made the whole team better - tougher - harder working.

    Glad to have him.
