Resting Manu for the Playoffs

[Obstructed_View]

Manu probably would have played if the games had been critical, which means he IS being rested.

What should be worrying people is the fact that the rotation is screwy going into the playoffs. I may be wrong, but I don't remember that happening in the past.

I have a better idea, let's rest the whole team!

[abelle23]

manu should play at least the 2 remaining games so as not to lose his rhythm...

A Rasho-Nazr-Fabs three headed rotating monster is what should be employed.

I just read this post!! I dont know how you call Nazr, Rasho, and Oberto a "monster" but oooookaaaay???

Absolute negatory. In the 2nd game of back to backs it is clinically proven that Duncan sucks this year. All his stats drop signifigantly, and i would include his defense. Tim should rest vs Utah, period. A Rasho-Nazr-Fabs three headed rotating monster is what should be employed.
(It will help if Utah is eliminated by then).

Duncan owns Utah. He will play.

Play manu 15-20 minutes for the final 2 games and also use TD only 20-25 minutes for the final 4 games..All we need to do is beat houston to really secure home court according to tiebreaker of conf. records!! Even if we go 2-2, i'm alright with that sa long as one of the wins is hou.

You DO NOT want to go into Houston w/a MUST win if it can be avoided. A team with nothing to play for, on its home court; with a chance to SPOIL the champs can be a very dangerous thing. I know they suck and have a buch of NBA scrubs; but ultimately those scrubs have NBA talent, can get hot, and win a single game.

we want to win out, have 6-game W streak, 64 W overall. They're all lottery teams, Magic is on second of B2B. Spurs need to gut up and win out. it's not a hard stretch of games.

So . . is Manu playing tonight?

[GrandeDavid]

The Spurs don't need Manu to secure the top spot, holmes.

I'd play Manu limited minutes, but I don't think I'd outright sit him.

Horry?

Yes make it a 4 headed monster.
