Highly concern on Lebron's Minutes

[Tony15]

Isn't LeBron averaging the third fewest minutes he's ever played in his career so far? I don't think this is something to constantly worry about. He knows his body better than anyone posting in this thread, and he's asked to come out of games when he's felt fatigued in the past. I wouldn't worry too much....

That's only because Mike Brown had to play Lebron heavy minutes to not expose his coaching "prowess"

And again we're "coasting", those teams weren't

Lebron's minutes are fine. He's averaging 10% less than his Cleveland years. He's also probably the most talented athlete every to play - any sport for that matter.

And quite frankly I'm sort of hoping the Heat get into a tight spot in the playoffs. Because I think we'd all like to see this man show up again:

^Nah, I'd rather have the easiest path to the finals as possible.

Obviously they are not coasting, they are just experimenting different lineups, at the end just 8 or 9 will play when is playoff time.

Him coasting isn't directly related to the minutes he is playing. Like some-one pointed out, the coach and everyone else obviously want a win and hence he is out there for as long as we can possibly get the win. however, he is not playing playoff basketball. It's not only because it's the regular season, but also because of fatigue and the nagging injuries.. He is pacing himself.

A much needed rest for Bron>> only 29 min vs SAC

MINUTES not always matter. Sometimes u play minutes, u see he doesnt put much effort.
Today in 29 mins, u can see he put lot of effort on defensive end
