Lowell Cohn and others interview Nellie on playing young guys

Doctor Kajita · Nov 6, 2008

Here's a transcript of Don Nelson's remarks before tonight's game with Denver. We asked why he's not playing his young guys even though before the season he said he would.

Cohn: I'm perplexed about something. I got the impression before the season started that you were going to not worry so much about wins but play a lot of young guys. It doesn't seem you're doing that. So I'd like to know what your thinking is.

Nelson: I'm going to play them before the year is out, probably, but there's a lot of them that aren't ready to play yet and I'm not giving gifts at this point of the season. They're going to have to earn their playing time. We're able to see them every day in practice and they're not NBA-ready yet at this point. The ones that are NBA-ready are getting an opportunity to play. The ones that aren't are getting more work on the practice site.
