    I do agree with this. I'm just curious if say Curry subbed in for Dame with about 5 minutes left in the 3rd quarter and got to play with the starters if he'd get some better looks. Then Dame can come back and play the whole 4th and lead the 2nd unit while CJ instead sits at the beginning of the 3rd. If we can just play teams even those 5 minutes he sits we could blitz teams in the 4th. It also solves the problem of not having any of the starters except for occasionally CJ playing with the 2nd unit.

    As the series progresses, they will look to copy-paste the Pelicans defense more.
    It might be good to have a more natural 3pt shooter out there.

    Sure, Jake is inconsistent, but those bench scorers who come off the bench and give you a random 15+ point night are huge factor of any wining playoff team.

    Never. Don't know where you get that from. We have Jake's Bird Rights so Aminu is irrelevant in regards to Layman unless we get hard capped. And $12M for Jake is an overpay so I have no idea where you're getting that from, but it's not me.

    You might want to check the Jake thread again. I quoted your post there. You are the one who commented we would just have to let Aminu walk if Jake got 12M.
