The coach's responsibility is to do what is best for the team. It is not his responsibility to do what is best for an individual player, especially a scrub.
This times infinity.
Vesely would look better alongside 4 very good players including a great stretch four who could play PF on defense and SF on offense, but that doesn't mean Vesely is a good player. It just means that he might look a little better in a certain situation. But there are still plenty of other NBA players who look even better in that same role. For example, Ariza can do everything Vesely can do only better. You can't name a hypothetical lineup configuration where Vesely would be a better fit than Ariza. And Ariza is a relatively easy-to-find journeyman type of player.
