The amount of rest is ridiculous, but perhaps Pop is using these built in game rest days for extra sessions ... anything from conditioning / strength training which we all know he needs to shooting sessions to extra burn in practices.
Given how little time the NBA schedule affords for this, the coaching staff may be building some of this in for the healthy players. Don't assume that "rest" means they're sitting around doing nothing.
