Ouch, that's brutal. I feel like all the things I have hated on for years- resting, unlimited spending etc has finally been fixed just in time for it to handicap boston

It’s not really a handicap.

They play 20-30 mins, who cares what happens as long as they don’t get hurt.

I seriously don’t know how anyone can take anything from these games.

If you’ve ever played sport and in a game where the result won’t affect standings etc you would know sometimes its just damn hard to give a ****.

I played in multiple ball games like this and definitely lost a couple because we simply didn’t care like the other team did. The Knicks want the 3 seed.


Yes ! me too
This is why you don't play in the 1st place

If we sat starters in 1st place we lose nothing ...playing half baked is STooooPiD

Who cares, we might not even make it there. We are facing the sixers or the heat in the 1st rd. If we play like this, we might get bounced in rd 1.

Absolutely we are done.

I think we lose in 2-3 games in the first round and run it back, what do you think?

Dude, the team doesn’t give a **** about these games.

No championship is ever going full pelt in game 80 of the regular season.

Joe had Tatum at the 5 the other day. They’re trying so hard!!!!

Exactly this

The same people on here complaining would be the first to complain if Jayson or Jaylen injured themselves hustling for a loose ball or exploding on a drive.

If that's the reasoning just don't play the them then! Whats the point of half ass effort?

To keep them in some shape??

They will definitely rest in one or two of the next and then there’s like a week off.
