I don't think he's been given the opportunity to beat out Cody Martin. It's what the Hornets do -- it's a Spurs thing with Borrego. They just don't play rookies. The fact that Melo Ball didn't start until Game 20 and still ended up being Rookie of the Year is remarkable he wasn't starting Game 1. Like any coaching decision/philosophy, it can be up for debate. Like I said in my other post, I think there is absolutely a time and place to sit rookie players -- NFL QBs for example and "project players." I don't think Bouk is a project and I think he deserves to play 15-20 min today. The Hornets are doing what is best for the Hornets (and at 3-0 it's working) but they are not doing what is best for James. I struggle to see why people but so much faith into the HORNETS and don't want to see James play. People just love to attack me when all I've been saying is I want to see James play and the Hornets were not the best landing spot for him.
