I would assume that he doesn't..
Unlike Memphis, Minnesota doesn't have much talent on their team..the Spurs should have no problem blowing them out if they can come out focused, which will allow Pop to rest Duncan and others in the 2nd half..

i would hope not...pop should learn by now that any team in the NBA is capable of beater any other team IMO...
yes,
he SHOULD rest TD AND manu and Dice & RJ....
then wait for the lakers....
Playing Minnesota is a night off to begin with......
Every plays.
12 guys get 20 minutes.
I still don't understand this mindset.![]()
sarcasm..........![]()
IMO he should rest himself.
it's called ---seeing things as they really are---calling a spade a spade---
meaning that the BEST chance that the spurs have of getting to the 2nd round is to play the LAKERS!---who happen to be in as bad a shape as anyone--going into the playoffs---
believe me---the lakers are praying for this;
that they can squeeze by the first two rounds WITHOUT any big battles---so that Kobe and Bynum can have extra time to heal---and for their team to get back in a groove that they had a couple of months ago---
they do not want a first round TEST....
everyone here thinks that the LONGER you avoid them ---the easier the path will be----
but Dallas/Denver/Phoenix/Utah---are NOT pushovers and ---back to the lakers----
the OPPOSITE IS THE TRUTH----the LONGER you wait to play them---the BETTER--prepared THEY will be....
think about it ----BEFORE---just assuming that AVOIDING them is the easiest path.....
i rather not go against the defending champions and go against the best player in the nba and a coach that has won 10 championships they kicked are butts twice this season also this would be very dumb sistuation unless u want a long summer like last year
You got that BACKWARDS----geez.....
THEY would rather NOT go into the playoffs against the BEST player in the NBA ---RIGHT NOW= Manu!
and they are BANGED UP!....they have no rhythm...no bynum...kobe is injured....no bench.....
spurs NEED to play L.A. to advance easier to the next round....
can ANYONE see this???
can everyone NOT see this?????
I thought the best player in the NBA was Lebron?
no way anybody sits out this game. besides hill of course. I wouldnt be surprised to see Tony back in the SL either. any news on that?
He isn't even the best player on his team.
Remember the Nets game when we rested Manu? Spurs r going to treat this like a must win, If we wanted to get the Lakers in the 1st round we would of started resting guys a long time ago. The last game of the season is on Wednesday and our first playoff game will be either Sat or Sunday, so rest shouldn't be an issue.
if i were the lakers and have to face the spurs in the first round, i'd call it unfair.
the lakers will be a totally different team once the playoffs start. people wanting them in the first round are delusional.
No doubt, they are just ing around right now.
Believe me, the Lakers aren't thinking that.
if you think this years spurs are an easy out you have another thing coming.
How do you know for sure? Do they call you at home?
Whatever he ends up doing, it will the wrong thing to do.
+1
I think Bud did a good job last time round
