I honestly think Wright's a lot better than when he first got here, that Roddy just doesn't have it in him mentally or physically, and that Crowder has very little upside. There's a reason why guys like Dojo, Roddy, Cunningham, and Crowder are available late in the first round, and why guys like Yi and Wright have flamed out elsewhere.

But the truth is somewhere in the middle - Rick's reluctance to rely on younger guys has nearly bit him in the ass even before he got to Dallas. It took until he was down 3-1 to Orlando to play Tayshaun in his rookie year. After that, Prince scored more points in the playoffs than he did in the regular season.
