i think MDA is an excellent coach & have no problem w/his hiring... but i just can't stomach watching Jordan Hill wasting away on the bench while Fishlips gets minutes... it just eats at my core.
TMS, generally, you can't trade a player who is sitting on the bench. As much as you don't like it, JJ and Curry gonna get minutes through at least the first 41 games.
