    They will get a weeks rest regardless cuz of the play in so even if they play 40 mins it doesnt matter, just rest them. Play them like 10 mins to avoid fines and then put them in bubble wrap.

    Remember 2 seasons before.
    Remember the last season.
    Look at this season.

    So this is around the time we should be firing Stone and Ime, right? That seems to be what's happening around the league.

    I thought the last week was going to decide our season and I would be stressed to all hell but it ended up going as smoothly as you could have hope for.

    Yeah locking up 2nd seed with games to spare with a bunch of young 20 yr olds just 4 yrs after the reset button is prob the 2nd best rebuild in recent history.

    Hopefully the Lakers exhausted themselves enough that the Mavs can pull off a miracle tomorrow night in Dallas.
