    Wow. Okay. All im saying is we need a second big man until he plays 36 minutes consistently without fouling out. Maybe he is there now? We wont know until we see it and it happens. Keeping ayton for the year will not hinder anything.

    Yes of course. But until he learns…

    for the most part they are playing big minutes. Two of those guys you named currently start. Remember last year when we ran Sharpe into the ground?
    Being sensible with minutes doesn't mean you are nursing players….

    Duop would be fine as the backup big. Hell I'd even be ok with Jabari Walker.

    We have zero need for Ayton in the rotation, it's super annoying his huge minutes prevents Clingan from playing.

    Yep. Remember when Ayton and Ant were out
    and Clingan had 17/12 and 8 blocks in a win? More of that please! He’s not being given the chance!

    16 mpg for Clingan isn’t sensible. Unless he has some secret health issue going on. Scoot getting 26 mins isn’t even enough. Work out the kinks when games don’t matter. Stupid that Simons and Ayton and Grant are taking minutes from them at all.

    Showcasing for trades? Im not gonna judge when i don't know all the inside thinking. Either way. Not upset or annoyed like some. I just don't see it near as detrimental as some claim it is.
    career? Yes. Rookie season? Not an issue.
