Are the inexperienced players improving?

My first game this year, but whoever mentioned Whaley in the same breath as Lyman DePriest and Rod Sellers either needs to have his head examined or knows very little about basketball. Oh wait, that was our head coach who said those things. Whaley was AWFUL today.

Sellers and DePriest were very limited players that hustled and played D. A Jim Calhoun developed Whaley would be a very good player.

Carlton has improved. He just gets no elevation off the floor on his shots.

Yeah but he always keeps the ball high. I'll take that tradeoff.

In the first few minutes Whaley was out hustled for a loose ball that should have been his, missed 2 box outs and was out fought for a rebound. He should have been benched. Rod and Lyman would not have allowed those things to happen. I watched Whaley slot today and saw very little hustle.

He can't jump. Its incredible. I don't even know how its possible.

Every single player on this team has a glaringly limitation or five.
