    Why our young core doesn't play more: The answer.

    70% (a number I made up to support my argument) of all posts on Jazzfanz pisses and moans about how the 4 young core of this team (Burks, Favors, Kanter, and Hayward) don't get more playing time over the older guys like Tinsley, Foye, Jefferson, and Carroll to name a few.
