You had me until this, which I had to do a double-take to realize that it wasn't tongue-in-cheek. Hopefully Dwight is a bright enough bulb to realize he isn't being paid minimum wage to be a starter, and that that was decided before contract negotiations even began. 

If Dwight starts more than 10 total games this year, and that only in the event of injuries, that means we're tanking, and should be looking into Luka's trade market. Period.

While I am not remotely worried about Powell feeling disrespect that he might not start, that second paragraph is complete hyperbole.  Don't get the Powell hate on this board, especially now that he signed a 4 million contract to do whatever the team needs.  If that means he has to start some games because Holmes is toast and Lively is not ready, its not the end of the world.
