    the bench of Trent and Whiteside? Because no one else is gonna play enough to make an impact one way or another.

    Simons will probably play.

    I’d bet he won’t.

    No Hood, Ariza, Swanigan, Little, and Whiteside. Can’t expect to win with that many people out of the lineup.

    Mario played well. Get off his back. He's making strides. Ant, not so much. His whole game was hideous. But it's practice. Nurk looked so damn good. Again, whether we lost or won, this is a practice scrimmage or exhibition. Don't get too high or low on any of these games. Melo with some quality minutes as well. Zach with some quality minutes. Good to see hoops again.

    What happened to Simons? He should be the best player for our 2nd unit.

    Nothing happened. He still isn’t ready.

    The rotation of subs will change by next week. This is just a starter. I see CJ coming out about the 8 minute mark, and replaced by GT. so he can be fresh at the start of the 2nd quarter. Whiteside will play in the 1st qtr. as well. I think the Blazers will play a rotation of Dame, CJ, Melo, Zach, Nurk, Hassan, GT, Nas & Mario. You won't see anyone else unless it's a blowout IMO.

    I forgot Wenyen. He has earned his share of minutes. Shame on me.

    Was impressed with Wenyen, Mario and Trent. Add in either Whiteside or Collins and that's a decent bench. Lets face it, the starters will be playing heavy minutes from the get go.

    Agreed, when it counts, I think it will be rare indeed to have any minutes without either CJ or Dame on the floor.

    It's not good when Hezonja is your second best player on the night.
