Lopez with a fractured hand

[Hobbesarable]

That will destroy our bench. I don't like it. In fact, last time Lopez went out Stotts started Leonard and it went well

Start Freeland or TRob and keep Kaman's scoring with the bench.

Broken right index finger for CJ.

Aww ok. Thanks

 

[KingSpeed]

Portland should continue to bring Kaman off the bench, and let someone else play with the starters. Portland was not getting much from Robin lately anyway.

Freeland, Leonard, Claver, or TRob are our only options. I say start Kaman.

 

[bemac]

Leonard

So who starts?!

 

[magnifier661]

Leonard

I was thinking the same.

Think TRob will start.

 

[riverman]

We have a lot of backup bigs and fortunately if TRob plays well, he can give Freeland and Kaman some rest. Leonard is never going to play center again. Wright will play center before Leonard does

 

[KingSpeed]

Think TRob will start.

But that's JJ Hickson all over again. LMA doesn't want to play center.

Leonard

What is, "Who should never play ever again for the Portland Trail Blazers?" for $500 Alex.

 

[Strenuus]

Hahahaha! I meant fine but I like fined better.

rep'd for the sense of humor!

 

[OneLifeToLive]

Based on what he did in Batums absence, I kinda think he goes Meyers here.

 

[magnifier661]

Poor Aldridge. He's gonna play center for a stint

 

[riverman]

Kaman will start I think but it won't really matter. I don't think Meyers will start but he might sub for LA while another guy plays the 5

Meyers did start when Aldridge was out and had 9/12 and we won. Maybe he can handle it.

 

[riverman]

I'm really glad Freeland is starting to chip in 6-8 pts a game now. Really helps

 

[Hobbesarable]

We need somebody to step in defensively.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Leonard ranks #40 in RPM for centers.

This isn't going to be fun.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I don't know what the hell you guys are talking about, I say put a big cast on Lopez, let him go out there and put those 6 fouls to good use.

 

[riverman]

LA is beasting. He's been in the lane more recently than all season. Freeland can provide LA with box outs and screens. TRob can rebound and put back misses if he's on his game.

If we good T.Rob every game, we won't miss a beat, maybe even get better

Rolo might develop Kaman's left handed shot while he's rehabbing ...I assume it was his right hand he hurt

Yeah, I'm leaning more toward those two as well.

Workin' on his chick magnet skills, eh? You da man!

 

[Pinwheel1]

I vote for Joel to start and Kaman to stay with the 2nd team. They need Kaman's scoring with the second unit more.

Then you have Trob to back up LA.

Lovin da ladies!

 

[BigGameDamian]

So who starts?!

I think Meyers Leonard will start.

Being 7'1" and that hair - that hat has to be specially made to fit that dome.

Now Aldridge is going to demand a trade.
