    Nash was doing everything for that system. He aint no machine. So he can rest now due to retirement. Hooper. Trooper.

    Player needs rest. Give more time for the bench.

    The idea that Nash was carrying some heavier physical burden than any other superstar leading his team deep into the playoff spot is crazy. Maybe guards carry more load than big men though it's certainly less physical for them.

    But MJ, Lebron, Kobe, Hakeem, Magic, etc, etc.

    Be the richly paid NBA player you are and get some energy.

    I'm tired when I wake up every morning. Lol
    I'm always seeing NBA players talking about their naps and ****. So please.

    No, he's simply telling the truth. D'Anthonie, similar to McHale, fall in luv with 8 or 9 man rotation, rather than developing a true bench. You need to play 8 or 9 but when you feel a rotational player is slipping or in a slump, give another player some minutes. Similar to Popovich. Don't continue sticking with a player until he work his way out of it.

    I agree. Harden was looking just fine until he aggravated his wrist in the final minute against OKC. He hasn't been the same since.

    Harden missed the game last night, and we don't play again until Wednesday, so that would give him 4 full days of rest since that GS game. The 3rd seed is essentially locked up, and we don't have much to play for, so Harden should be relatively healthy and full of energy heading into the playoffs.

    And Nash didn't look tired in the playoffs either, but apparently he was. Conclusion - you cant necessarily determine fatigue by watching the games. NEXT.

    No reason Westbrook should average less minutes than Harden. MDA running players into the ground.

    Am I the only one that thinks you should be tired in the playoffs. Leave it all on the floor. And let the bench carry you off it.

    Everyone is going to be tired. Its an 82 game season including a potential of 7 game playoff series' for 3 rounds. Until any of that changes everyone will be tired until the championship is crowned.

    PUSH THROUGH MF'ER!

    Nash is also white, doesn't have the stamina of some of the black players.
