A decent team should be able to survive 15 minutes per night from a low producing rookie, who they want to develop and (if nothing else), increase his trade value. For some reason Mavs decided they rather do this kind of thing with WCS and Powell. Playing two guys 15 minutes per night each despite minimum production they provide.
Sorry, my reply was mostly aimed at @"hakeemfan". I should've just quoted him to be clear, but I got lazy.
I agree with the concept of developing assets, and I agree that Green hasn't panned out. But, I'm not sure I agree that it's because he hasn't been given enough time in real games. Maybe it has, or maybe he's demonstrating in practice that he can't learn the system, doesn't rotate when he should, doesn't move the ball to the right place, whatever. We just don't know. But, what we should know is that they don't think the team would be better off giving him minutes right now, for whatever reason.
