Wtf. Playing for top-6 - two days rest before next game. Don't throw a must-win game by resting players.
'Bruised elbow'...

Luka needs rest because he has been dragging his feet for few games now. Plus he was limping every game for some weird reason. Anyway.. KP will probably play and Pistons will miss all their important guys. Should be an easy win.

Look at their schedule. This is THE perfect game to rest anyone. They have a lot of B2B games plus basically any game from here on will be a tough and close fight for either 5th, 6th or 7th spot. Even those two CLE games are going to be towards the end of the season so they will be just as important. Plus few games against direct opponents who fight for a high playoff spot. People say rest of the schedule for Mavs is easy, i think it's really tough.

As i stated. Two days of rest after the game. Should be no reason what-so-ever to rest your key-player in a must-win game when you're fighting hard for top-6. Would be so **** stupid to throw a game like this because of rest.
Should go full strength and get the job done quick and easy.

You need to win something without Luka to. I have read somewhere that Pistons will miss players who scored 70+ points in first game between them.

But is this really the time to do so? Do you reckon Lillard are getting rested in one of the coming games?
Two days rest after todays game. Should've played him. Win or lose.
