True Hoop article on developing young players

Coaches are playing "correct" Grays over "still learning" Valanciunases all over the league. It satisfies a coach's sense of order and control. Every coach wants their team to play the right way -- which is not so different from following coach's orders. Without that, what's the point of having a coach?

Meanwhile, the guy who plays the "wrong" way often helps his team more, thanks to the many advantages of youth.

It's a dilemma that trips up many NBA head men. But not Gregg Popovich.

That article really tells the story, doesn't it...

You have to give Popovich credit. They are a well oiled team what I would like to see the Jazz become. We will see how good they do against the Heat. I think the Heat will win although Indiana is a good team. There has probably been young players never given the chance who could have been really good. Malone was drafted kinda late and turned out very good. We need to find some one.
