Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 3311319, member: 1969"] Fair enough point. He will play to start. But more likely than not, it will not be sustained and he will go deeper into the bench. That is not an anti-Dion thing, it is more the reality of what happens with most buyouts. Teams take a chance with them, and more often than not for whatever reason they end up not relying that heavily on them. There are excpetions -- Enes Kanter played alot for Portland last year. So we have two positive scenarios: 1) He gets minutes to start and keeps them 2) He gets minutes to start because a team is desperate, it doens't work and he still acts as a professional afterwards. For anyone that wants to accuse me of moving goalposts. Don't worry about it -- I know I did. [/QUOTE]
