Does Nate try to give the starters a breather and the bench some more run, or does he wear out the starters and weaken our playoff chances trying to get a higher seed?

You play for HCA.

Yeah homecourt sure would diminish our chances this post season.

Who cares as long as we win!

Hey I like the question. There was an article about Roy wondering how hard he should go and Nate saying let me worry about your minutes, you play all out when you are in there. Roy agreed.

So now the responsiblity lies on Nate. How wuch do you play Roy v. getting him ready for the playoffs? For that matter, Rudy and Blake are banged up . . .every starter and most reserves could probably use some time off to get right for teh playoffs.

We have seen Yao get some games off. Dallas is jockeying for playoff postion and they are giving Howard a rest tonight.

At what point do you limit Roy's minutes so to have him as healthly for playoffs as possible? Myself, I would love to see a SA loss tonight (out of all games). If Denver, Houston and Blazers win, it will make the last game of the season meaningless and the some players can get some much needed rest before the war begins.

You play to win. Then you get at least 2 days off to rest.

And they almost lost! That Finley three-pointer with no time remaining on the shot clock was shit, so most likely OT if Kings didnt make a buzzerbeater...

Hehe...funny how sometimes things just work out splendidly.

Starters dominate, then rest as the bench dominates extended minutes.

Everyone has a blast, chemistry is cooking, blowout win.
