Man trading D-Will would be a huge mistake, he wasn't even bad last year, I bet he does 18-8 with better efficiency next year if he starts at SF, his 3-point shooting is going to come around, he was absolutely deadly in college it just takes time to adjust to NBA range.

When Ricky Rubio is your point guard you don't trade away athletic freaks with shooting range, you hoard them.

I think his numbers may improve, but I'm not sure by how much. He may just be more efficient with similar numbers. If we get Budinger and Batum then our wing situation is so vastly improved that he may not get the ball as much.

I think he'll get enough minutes to show what he can do. Playing at PF with Love at center and spelling Love another 10 minutes a game. About 20-25 minutes a game, enough to show what he's got and if he plays well he'll earn more.
