Message: [QUOTE="alphaorange, post: 1726363, member: 305"] You must not watch much NBA. Guys (including some 1st rounders) get sent to the NBDL all the time so they can get playing time. It's more important to play than to sit. Also, during the season, there is not as much time to practice as you think. With the back to backs, the travel, and practicing game plans for upcoming opponents, sometimes practice time is very limited. There is a reason a star like Jermaine O'neal got next to no playing time until his 5th year. It seemed to work out OK for him.....but it took a lot longer to get started. [/QUOTE]
