4 with too many minutes...

[baller]

McEwen, Overton, Jawara & Jones are all playing 30+ minutes per game. Seems to me that they should be held to about 25-27 minutes per game so as not to wear them out before the season ends. I noticed that 3 players with significant minutes last season are not being used at all. They are Kozak, Cunningham and Bassett. Why are these guys not being inserted into games at all? They could provide a few extra minutes to give the 4 mentioned above a few extra minutes on the sidelines so that they might be more fresh late in the season. It seems to me that Rahe is not interested (or maybe doesn't know how to rotate) in playing more than 8 guys. Can anyone tell me why these three unplayed guys are not playing virtually at all? Seems to me that Weber is at least 10 deep with quality players. Why are they not playing?

This too many minutes thing is a bit much. Couple games a week....40 minute clock.....Media TO's every 4 minutes...other TO's.....15 minute halftime. Most players would kill for 30 min+ PT per game.
