    But I guess if the Blazers traded for both Gay and Cousins the Kings would want McCollum. So more like this.
    Lillard
    Crabbe
    Gay
    Cousins
    Ezeli?

    Would you consider such an idea?

    Really I don't see the issue being who's starting. In almost every game the starters looked really good it was the bench that struggled. If you want to make a case for a different starter for defensive purposes that I would understand but there doesn't need to be any more offense with the starters.

    i think eventually we could see a few versions of the lineup

    but the fact remains, we have a bunch of people (and many very paid up) with similar functions who arent producing near to whats required.

    4x SF = turner, crabbe, aminu, hark
    3x PF = davis, noah, meyers (even though he plays like a terrible SG)
    2x C = plum, ezeli

    we desperately need some consolidation for a legit starting PF. I can't see how anyone would really want any of these guys outside of noah and maybe crabbe at this point.

    the hope is that ezeli is actually decent. kinda sad its come down to that already.
