That isn't the argument. The argument is that
anyone coming off a long term injury does so a step behind. It isn't a matter of youth vs. age, but the simple fact that no practice can ever replicate game action, and it takes a period of time to adjust to the pace of games. Bennett is not likely to be any different in this regard simply because we want him to be.
