    I don't share your fear that Zu or Ingram will get any less minutes this year than they show they are capable of doing well with and performing in Luke's rotations and strategies. If anything Black and Yi will be fighting it out for scraps. Especially Zu as his body is close to NBA ready. Just needs some time in the gym for his first program. Luke also won't give them TOO much to handle against top line players too soon.

    You contradicted your first point completely. Not every player is Kyrie Irving. In fact the vast, vast majority of players are not Kyrie Irving.

    The two players you want desperately to be Kyrie Irving showed in the Summer League that they've got light-years to go before they're capable of carrying anything close to the load that Kyrie could carry even as a rookie.

    Bottom line is that Luke has said starting spots are earned in training camp and wouldn't rule out Ingram starting this season. If either Ingram or Zubac shows enormous growth between Summer League and Training Camp, they'll get all the opportunities that they need to succeed.

    Zubac is the GOAT, and that is an understatement

    I wouldn't be surprised if Mozgov is dealt by the deadline, earliest being Dec 2015.

    If I can trade Lou Will,Calderon&Black for a PF, I'm calling Sac and see if I can get Cousins for Randle&Moz.

    Bagagagagaga. Meant Dec 15th is earliest you can trade a player signed over summer..

    I'd trade Moz,,Calderon&Deng for the right deals.

    I keep forgetting we have this guy, huh. I don't think we're overrating Zubac either, he's young and will have to grow and adjust, but has the tools to be a very skilled C in today's game. He's got the fundamentals, he can shoot, and he can block shots, I think he was a steal where he was drafted when compared to other big men in the draft.

    He's always had a decent touch from the outside. I want to see him bring the defense this year though.
