We've played horrible over the last few months and we're not good enough to flick a switch and play well once playoffs arrive. The guys will get a few days rest after the regular season is over anyways. I'd rather have a team that's in rhythm, and a few less days rest, than a rested team that's going to come out rusty. Getting our starting 5 on the same page is far more important.


I get what you are saying - momentum is important. Im not saying sit back and just coast by any means. I want us to win games.

Injuries can happen at any time though. Also, you can bet that not everyone on the team is operating at 100% - the public only knows what the team chooses to disclose in terms of player health. Amir Johnson, for example, can always use a game off. You don't even necessarily need to have them sit out as a DNP, you can just bring their minutes down.

If the games are meaningless (For Example: Chicago holding a 2 game advantage with 2 games left to play), then why why risk it? I think it would be cool to see players like Bebe, Bruno and Fields get some PT, especially if the games dont matter.

Lowry is already sitting so you aren't seeing the starting five together regardless.

I don't expect anyone to come out rusty for game one. We are going to be ready, if anything over excited. The players know what the atmosphere is like inside the ACC (Lou Will is about to find out).

True. It's not as black and white as I made it sound. Minutes lowered as long as we're going to win, and also resting a few guys in the last or 2nd last game, isn't going to hurt us. As long as we maintain that we need to play well and win as many as possible, then I'm fine with that. If home court comes down to the last few games though, screw resting guys. If I'm Casey I'm not giving anybody a day off unless they get they show they're up to par.

What was Amir doing there?

So great that we have a big that shoots 80% from the line. We take that for granted sometimes

What's the point of playing the starters if they playing like they don't care. Might as well rest em... but Casey has always been extremely short sighted in everything he does.
