    Is it more important to you to dictate (size, style, pace) to the opposition, or to use the lineup's versatility to respond to and counter what the other team is trying to do?

    Would you contemplate using a frontcourt lineup of Harkless at the 4, Aminu at the 5 in certain situations?

    What is the reasoning behind a 2-guard front? What are the benefits?

    Is there any place for Chris Kaman in the Blazer organization if he doesn't sign elsewhere?

    Fair question for Stotts. I wasn't aware they needed to be softball fluff questions.

    You could phrase it in a less condescending manner.

    Do you think Kevin Calabro or Lamar Hurd will get kicked out of any games?

    We all see Dame and CJ's leadership on and off the court. With so many young and talented players, who else has shown leadership qualities that maybe we don't see?

    What do you think about Plumlee's new jump shot? How beneficial do you think it can be for the Blazers offense?
