Way too much.

Culver looks rough imo. Everything he throws up looks like trash. It's always a shock when the ball goes in.
Rosas was an important part of a very good organization, and everything that he has done has made sense to me so far. As far as the personnel situation goes, our rotation is a bunch of cheap players who are mostly better than replacement level players. He inherited a shitty salary cap situation and has made the best of it for this year while hopefully setting us up for future success. I dont see how he's rippable for anything he's done so far, but the jury is still out - If Covington and two 1st rounders are included in a trade for Russell, I wont be happy about that. Its way too early to say for sure he's a genius or an idiot. Lets see what happens before the trade deadline and during the next off season at least.
As for right now, I dont think many people expected us to be 8-7 at this point. And for changing the culture and getting the team to play like a modern NBA team, as well as putting together a very good coaching staff, I'd give Rosas an A so far.
As far as Culver goes, he looks weak and nervous, but he has shown some NBA skills. Give him some time. He's 20 years old and only 15 games into his 1st season. Its very possible that he can get a lot better.
