Rest Vs Rust

Discussion in 'Houston Rockets: Game Action & Roster Moves' started by smoothie, Mar 31, 2018.

How would you balance rest vs rust?

  1. Rest - give guys games off

  2. Stay sharp & conditioned - play regular minutes if 100% healthy

  3. Combo - play regular rotation each game but only in first half, or 1st/3rd quarters.

  4. Other - describe in your reply

    I bet Luc wishes they had rested a bit more.

    it shouldn't be a surprise to anyone that they are out of rhythm. you can tell by watching for 5 minutes.

    we'll have about 10-12 games to get back into form in rounds 1-2. should be enough.

    I am not opposed to having to go through extra games to fine tune things up, as long as the ultimate outcome is not at risk.:)

    looks like we don't play game 1 until monday. that's 6 days off.

    with james under the weather and some of our guys showing less energy than usual, maybe the rest is good.

    Definitely. I think rest gets to be a negative when you lose focus. The Rockets aren't going to lose focus as they have waited for this matchup all year. So the rest is a good thing. But they will be mentally engaged and figuring out how to deal with GS
