    I don't think Mason is going anywhere; I think he will start in fact because Ezeli and Leonard aren't available or reliable beyond 12-18 minutes each. He's a great guy, too.

    I dont think any of us want to trade him. The financials just dont pencil out, especially after next season when he gets a 15 million/yrish offer. Plums has some value around the league, so i feel pretty confident we would get a nice asset in return.

    Ed davis is almost untradeable with his contract. Meyers has good value for those that believe in him. I have faith ezeli works out and hes on a great contract. Aminu will get minutes at the 4. Vonleh needs time to develop.

    I like plumlee the most out of all the players mentioned, and ill be ecstatic if paul allen says fuck it and spends his money freely again. But im skeptical thats the case.

    I agree with all of this except the part where you say that Ed Davis' contract makes him almost untradeable. WTF? I don't see that, at all! Not that I am saying I want to trade him....

    His value is tremendous for what we pay him.

    Only way i would deal him is if it was in a consolidation deal where we got a major starting lineup upgrade

    Unfortunately it's going to get mighty expensive to have him as a backup next summer.

    I hear Plumlee is big time into Manga. Talk about identifying with your fan base! Maybe he can host a special Hayao Miyazaki festival at the Bagdad Theater.

    If those kids paid for the camp, the guy running it should pay Plumlee. If the guy didn't, Plumlee's agent had better watch out that Plumlee doesn't get a sucker reputation for working for free, or else well-funded events will exploit him.
