Nets have been less horrible lately.
Unless someone is injurer or tired, I wouldn't rest a player against them.
I would open a little more the bench and hope the 4th quarter end up as garbage time.
Too much at stake now to risk blowing a game and the momentum of the 2 big wins.
Guys are just going to have to play, esp Duncan, who looks like he needs a confidence game. Only guy that might be afforded some rest if the spurs get up a bunch is Manu, since he's been carrying the team on his back for the past 3 weeks.
Sit Timmy, Manu light minutes if we can...
Sit too many, or even ONE starter; and the Nets feel disrespected; however many games they've lost - they are an NBA team, with NBA talent; don't give them ANYTHING, no matter how meaningless it may seem, to play for. Start everyone; beat them down; THEN rest.
Starting Lineup:
Ian Mahinmi
Matt Bonner
Keith Bogans
Roger Mason
Malik Hairston
The rest coming off the pine...
This is a joke, right?Starting Lineup:

Nobody should rest. Nobody played really extended minutes last night, and the 4th was half garbage time.
I don't like Manu's ballooning minutes, but I also don't like the team falling to when he's not on the floor.
One loss is worth as much as another right now, so the Spurs can't afford to take a night off. Losing to the Nets would just negate the hard work from the Cleveland and Boston games.
I agree with you with the exception of Timmy. He looks tired and this is a good chance to let him rest. Blair and Ian are hungry for minutes, and Bonner and Dice are pros who are still getting some kinks out. (Bonner from his injury Dice from his really slow adaption to our system.) All 4 of them could use minutes, so put Tim in a suit for this game.Nobody should rest. Nobody played extended minutes last night, and the 4th was half garbage time.

I agree.. I'm starting to call him Roger Missin Jr.
