Nope rev, you are way off here.

Almost every great player in the nba started off thier careers by playing behind crappy vets (raja bell types) and racking up dnp's while never getting consistent minutes and constantly changing roles/postions.

Kobe, wade, lillard, love, durant, harden, rose, westbrook, aldridge, wes matthews, cp3....... all these guys got a bunch of dnp's in thier first few years playing behind washed up crappy vets.
Corbin is just following the blueprint layed out for him

1. draft a talented young player in the lottery.
2. Play a horrible old player in front of him
3. Constantly change his minutes around and give out lots of dnp's
4. never give him an actual role or postition within the team
5. when he plays great in summer league and preseason and works hard on his game and busts his but at p3 and other off season camps....... repeat steps 1-4.

6. Play him at a position he has never played before, pg. In that way, he looks worse than he is, justifying your not using him much.
 
Agree 100% and have always felt this way. All coaches do this and i never understand why

So many times i see a guy get 2 fouls and the coach pulls them out and reduces thier minutes. Then the game ends and they only have 3 fouls.
I thought the whole point of taking them out is cause the coach is worried about them fouling out and not being available to help the team, but if you take them out due to fear of fouls then they are not available already and its like they already fouled out.

I hate when coaches do that so much.

I remember when we were playing the Warriors last, Bogut go two quick fouls and I got excited because I thought he would leave the game. Jackson kept him in and he never picked up the 3rd foul until I think the 3rd quarter. Wish more coaches would take that risk.

Definately.

I think that coaches in general, in nfl and nba, are scared to try things differently than everyone else so they just do what other coaches would do.
Especially the nfl since every play is so crucial.

Off topic but i think that more nfl coaches should do onsides kicks when not expected, go for it on 4th down more often, do flea flickers and other trick plays more..... i would be fired so quick if i were a coach in the nfl lol
 
it does not show that. First of all corbin does not think like that.
he put foye to guard kobe last year (he means: effing Foye. can you believe that?)

just for those who are to lazy or just too dense to understand a perfectly understandable internetzz language.

and I seriously dislike and despise boneheaded guys, trying to look cool and stuff!
 
Can you show me a link, I'd greatly appreciate it.

No but just go to espn.com then to nba scores and then to the jazz game and there will be options for like box score, conversation, recap, and highlights or something like that.

Then click on highlights
