Jennings has been injured, but still... That's a pretty elite PF/C combo. _________________ Damian Lillard shatters Dwight Coward's championship dreams:

1. Drummond is still very raw.
2. Jennings is elite?

They were playing much better with Jennings than RJax IMO. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals

Greg Monroe is not a particularly good basketball player.

They've had more than one coach. And SVG has been successful in his last two stints as a HC.

16.0 and 10.5 is pretty good.
Some people here want to give him the max. I wouldn't, though. _________________ Damian Lillard shatters Dwight Coward's championship dreams:

Once they got rid of Josh Smith they went on a roll but then Jennings got hurt and they started to struggle again.

I agree, he puts up decent numbers but he's not someone who will get you more wins.

Jennings is out. They were rolling when they ditched the on floor cancer, Josh Smith.
I think Reggie Jackson in his short stint has proven he doesn't have what it takes.

Not enough talent.
Monroe is their best player. On a contending team, he'd be the 3rd best player. _________________ I Recommend VLC Player: http://www.videolan.org/

Those numbers mean very little. It isn't 1985 anymore.
