Murphey almost broke nba 3 point record, off bench tonight
For majority of star players, only thing that matter is 65 games played. So ones who surpassed that number will probably "suffer" from random BS injuries through April.
Huh? Seems like a lot of real injuries to me? Some of these teams can't really afford to lose players to surgery, even short-term, if they're trying to win now or go all in (Philly, New York, Phoenix, etc). Even Cavs are a bit iffy in terms of not doing anything with Mitchell.
Only players that can really rest soon is Boston probably.
Yup... onyl BOS.
Look at MIL and CLE. A couple of 1-3 records and their places could switch. Meaning goodbye homecourt advantage.
Lool at 4-8 in the East. 1 win or 1 lose coud mean the difference between playin and homecourt advantage.
No team is going to rest its star player with the fight so close.
