Corbin is thinking about playing tight end next year. Rose needs to re-think some things. Austin sometimes plays good D. But he’s a liability on offense. Corbin needed the time on the court to prepare for league. Sitting and not developing gets players down. We saw what he can do last night. Hopefully he plays more now and gets happy about basketball.
Are you suggesting we have a D league to develop players or we play to develop players instead of play for W’s? I would never make a good coach because I would play those who perform best in the games and salt in others for experience when the risk for turning a W into an L is not too high.
Players don’t get better bench sitting. Corbin has more talent than Austin. He produces more on offense. Sitting him when he struggles for a few extra minutes can help. Not for ten games.
