    Let Dame and CJ sit as much as needed. All it means is more playing-time for my boy Tim Fraaazier!!!

    It's fun watching Crabbe and Frazier run the offense for a change

    This is Aminu's chance to shine. Olshey wants him to become a point-forward like Batum. Stotts should redesign all the plays to encourage Farouk to dribble around looking for pass recipients.

    I think Aminu and Crabbe are our Draymond and Iggy, just not sure who's who

    Leonard passes with authority, and has a good head on his shoulders. Stotts whould make him the decison-maker in a wheel offense, like Walton used to be.

    If Crabbe is to become a good guard, he must take it to the next level. Stotts should tell him to dribble around every play until he finds a good spot from which to bounce one in off the backboard.

    LOL, that would be a massive tank strategy to have Chief "dribble around" - when he does that things often go south quickly! Chief needs to focus on what he can do, he just does not have the handles to try to be Batum

    I say sit Lillard and CJ as much as possible. The team is woefully undermanned and will only get better through top draft picks. We need a top 4 draft pick and a couple of strong FA's next year. Then we will have a chance to be competitive. The team as currently constructed is a pile of garbage.

    What the fuck? that's really your attitude? it isn't like you to think that. We have a very good roster top-to-bottom. Dame, CJ and Leonard are great offensive players, Plumlee is a good defender. We have above average role players at many positions. Henderson could be a starter. Frazier can play with either Dame or CJ. We're worth a playoff spot or at least a chance

    Call me crazy, but I like Frazier. He may turn into a good player with the increased PT. He needs to be able to make the open shot more consistently but that may improve over time. I like passing ability and court sense.

    Huh? Not like Tlong? I've seen nothing but negativity. How many two word posts "They Suck"?. Or "He sucks". Or "this team sucks" have been posted?
    Just saying its VERY MUCH like him... don't be so surprised. :)

    And that's really sad, because Nic doesn't have great handles. But Nic looks like Jason Williams when compared to Aminu!

    YES!!! Also, don't forget the tank strategy of making Meyers Leonard hang out around the three point line. It's working so far!
