This is from todays practice scrimmage. From what I have been reading, it looks like this is not new.
I can see it already, Fisher is going to have this hanging above him pretty quick if the starters don't play better than the bench players (scoreboard wise). I know Affalo is out but this is still concerning. I really wonder if we need to play the best 5 and stay away from this "keep the bench together" ideology.

"A process of becoming good" sounds like an excuse to me, like a placeholder. It means that whatever happens - "But we are getting better." So, to answer your question, the current scenario is a dangerous situation for a new coach to be in. We basically have a rookie PG, an undrafted 2nd year PG/SG, an almost out of the league Williams and a couple of other guys beating on the starters regularly. What this means, in clearer terms, is that Calderon and Sasha/Affalo are not going to cut it. I would lean more towards the Calderon factor and understand Affalo is hurt (but that might be an ongoing problem). We are going to destroy our inside presence with fouls having Calderon out there. All for the benifit of his slow pace and ability to shoot? What future is there in starting Calderon when his career is near ending when the coach says "a process of becoming good"? By the time we are good he will be gone, this makes little sense. The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant.
