Why shouldn't they give him the entire season to develop? The 
Celtics are building for the future and immediate success, though 
valuable, is not the number one priority. It's not a law that in 
order to become an all star, you have to play like one as soon as you 
hit the league. We've seen flashes of what he can do. Pitino is the 
best coach in all of basketball right now and he'll be able to 
straighten Chauncey out. And if he doesn't, he doesn't, but at least 
give the team and Chauncey a chance.
