Since the suns acquired Jalen Rose, he has spent most of his time,if not all of it on the bench.Ive watched less talented players get picked up,and immediately they are put into rotation.I think Rose has been a proven versatile scorer and a potential all star through out his career,so i cant see why the suns dont use this to their advantage.Besides,the suns have a short rotation anyway,only playing about 8 players a game.

1. The Suns already had an established pecking order before he even got there. Which leads to the next reason.
2. He's got talent but either he's lots a lot of his ability or his playstyle might not fit into what the Suns need. Which leads to...
3. The Suns keep brought him in cause you never know when that veteran spark might be needed. Take a look at Dikembe Mutombo. he was riding the bench till Yao Ming went down with injury. Now he's playing huge minutes.

While Rose was good on the Raotors his play eventually fell apart. This resulted in him being traded to the Knicks. He was then cut from the Knicks when Phoenix signed him. The reason he doesnt play is because Phoenix is already a strong team, and one old player who cant shoot well anymore won't help them.

cause the Suns are stacked. They don't need him.. Jalen Rose is a millionaire and he doesn't do anything!

Becuase he's getting old and doesn't have the speed to keep up with the rest of the suns
