Kosta deserves more playing time. This is only thing that has kept him from participating in the rookie game. Every time he gets the time, he proves that he belongs out there. Not playing deserving rookies is one of the many reasons why I can't stand sloan.

I don't have a problem with Kosta's exclusion. If he gets any kind of consistent burn next year, he'll play on the sophomore team.

If love got snubbed we cant complain about kosta. Why the roster is down to 9 players is beyond me,

Yeah, Jason Thompson didn't make it in either and he's having a very solid year for a rookie.

And yes, the 9 man rule is really terrible.

Didn't even notice that they only had nine men. Wasn't it twelve in the past? Guess they just want more exposure for their overhyped media darlings.

I know it's his rookie year and he got rusty and out-of-sync with a full season missed, but Oden hasn't looked like much to me. I'd definitely rather have Love about now.
