I don't know anything about NBA, so please don't shoot me but..

 

is it normal to have prospects sit on the bench and rot like they have with Brazilian Kevin Durant?

Yes, there's also the D-League, but the team has a lot less control of the minutes their players get I believe. Sometimes it's better to have them roll with the club and practice with the team.

Yeah. They can work on their skills in practice and min are hard to come by in the NBA.

As well, if the D league team isn't affiliated with the NBA team, then the NBA team is sending a player to go play in a whole different system.

Fair question. I think it's especially important in Bruno and Nogueira's case that they sit and learn the game because there are differences between where they grew up playing. They'll be pushed hard in practice until they are ready

Yeah, I figured that's how it worked but wasn't too sure.

Patterson has been amazing the last few weeks. Ever since that slow start he has been so great off the bench

Yea the first week or so he was doing his best Bargnani imitation but he's probably been our best big since.
