Nah D'Antoni needs to win now or he won't be employed much longer. So he can't play projects.
It's kinda clear he isn't the greatest in developing young talent anyways and clearly favors veterans. It's the same reason Brad Childress continues to play a hurt Brett Favre when clearly their season is over
Fields, Douglas, Moz, Gallo, Chandler.

Can throw in Walker too, who he is playing more and more.
Sure doesnt seem like D'ant has some stubborn determination to favor vets.
Unless your classification of "youth" means a season ago they still had the taste of Gerber'sin their mouth.
