    To avoid having them playing back to back. He's done it all year, and I could completely see him doing that if they are up 3-0. It wouldn't surprise me to see the spurs win even if all three rest.

    Another advantage for Spurs not losing until after the Thunder - they play a day behind OKC.

    Technically yes. Although not necessarily fair, as Spurs have played in only 2 games against the Clippers while the Thunder have played in 3 against the Lakers.

    That technicality will be rendered moot after the Spurs win game 3.
