    First time Nurk touches the ball he hits Layman for an easy two.

    More and more often, I see Jake's length and athleticism making for tough shots for whomever he is guarding.

    And then the constant movement.....for another dunk.

    Dude should get 30 minutes a game right now. Whether it's all at SF or getting subbed out with 6 minutes left in the 1st and 3rd and getting subbed back in with the bench with 3 minutes left as the PF next to Collins at C.

    Can someone provide me with some legitimate reasoning as to why Stotts limits Layman’s playing time.

    Just think about it... Layman as a cutter getting buckets like this combined with the potential to shoot 38-39% from 3, combined with the potential to be an above-average defender... Isn't that exactly what we need?

    I also think Layman could be really good off the dribble drive if he improved his handle... He has a quick first step and is athletic going to the rim. Imagine him in transition if he had a tight handle...

    Blazer guards...2-7.

    Rest of team...4-4.

    Figure it out guys. It's okay to feed the guys making shots.

    Yeah. Take out Layman. Turner is the logical conclusion.
