I'm not convinced that Neil is done, but with the roster as it is right now, what would be your starting five and who would be your primary reserves? I'm going pure youth movement. Dame Crabbe Aminu Vonleh Davis With CJ Leonard Hendo Plumlee Harkless Frazier can be the 3rd point guard, Pat can be our practice squad All-Star.
Dame Crabbe Aminu Leonard Plumlee With Cj, harkless and vonleh getting most of the minutes off the bench
I can honestly see either Leonard or Vonleh starting. Don't see a problem with either choice, but I went with Vonleh because I think he has a better shot of being a really really good player.
Lillard (36) / Frazier Henderson (26) / CJ (26) / Pat (8) Aminu (26) / Crabbe (11) / Harkless (11) Leonard (24) / Davis (18) / Vonleh (16) Plumlee (24) / Kaman (14)
I think Leonard has earned his chance to show us what he has. I think he ends up surprising many of us and breaking out. I see vonleh, Leonard and plumlee playing most of the big man minutes. I just don't think ed Davis is a very good player. I think he can be a great fourth big, but I don't see him as a long term piece, so I'd limit his minutes
Dame, Frazier Hendo, CJ Aminu, Crabbe, Harkless Davis, Vonleh Plumlee, Meyers, Kaman CJ is 6th man. Crabbe is 7th. Offense is guard heavy points with the bigs cleaning up the garbage. with the reverse in the second unit (offense run through Vonleh and Meyers).
I think we have to start Meyers because are only other shooter in the starting lineup is Dame. Plus, he deserves to start. Start Plumlee and bring Davis off the bench.
Doesn't matter who starts The only player on the roster that's going to average more than 30mpg is Lillard The rest will play about the same amount of minutes imo, especially the big guys. Whoever is playing better that game will get the minutes. As of right now Davis and Plumlee are the best big guys on the roster.
Have no idea yet. Want to wait till training camp comes around. Need to get a feel of who is killing it and who is set for the bench first. I would like to see Leonard get some starting minutes though. I think its now or never for him as far as being a starter.
We are going to have so many guys that deserve some time, but aren't head-and-shoulders above the others, that we should do a Nate (or was that Mo Cheeks?) white/black squad deal. barfo
Lillard(36)/Frazier(20) CJ(32)/Harkless(8)/Cauvington Crabbe(24)/Aminu(18)/Henderson(6) Leonard(22)/Vonleh(20) Davis(18)/Plumlee(20)/Orton(10)/Kaman(6)
Hah, trying to get that NBA cashback for being so under the cap. What, a cool 2 million a player or so? haha
What's with all the Davis downer? He could be our second best player and one of our only ready now, two way players. Just cause he comes from purple and piss isn't his fault. The guy is young and quality. Way overlooked on this board.
