The problem is, outside of the desperation of needing bodies during the covid stretch, they haven't played. Some scrap minutes here and there but nothing meaningful. Rick has to do a better job of finding a way to get them in and there have been opportunities to do so. Reps in practice isn't enough.
James Johnson, Burk and Powell have been underwhelming to quite bad this season so it would be easy to supplement some minutes from those 3. I thought Green was fine when he played, Given the fact that we had a tiny offseason and there wasn't normal practice schedules. Green was never going to be a shooter like Bane coming out, and I highly doubt he ever will. I thought we got him for his A and D, Athleticism and Defense, and He has shown both.

I'm with you. I think pretty much everyone is. These guys need to get their feet wet at some point. Unfortunately, this just comes with the territory with Carlisle, always has been. Some coaches just don't trust rookies, and Carlisle is one of them.
