I see Kawhi getting the night off, tbh. They should be able to beat a Cousins less Kings without him.
at home the first night of B2B, the tougher one is @ OKC the following night.I would probably sit out all geezers (TP/Manu/Pau)..
Quick hook on Kawhi/LMA with plenty of Kyle/Bertans/Simmons/Murray early on..

Let the Austin Spurs take the court against the Kings.
As risky as it is you've got to rest Kawhi and LMA they've been shouldering huge minutes these last 3 games.
Kings have been pretty decent since Cousins left, all games pretty close IIRC. I would rest TP, Manu, and Pau
Roll with:
Dedmon, Lee
Aldridge, Bertans
Leonard, Anderson
Green, Simmons
Murray, Mills
Parker, Manu, Kawhi, and LMA probably.
Mills/Pau/Lee will be relied upon heavily if so.
I wouldnt rest kawhi tbh, OKC should be a non-issue.
Leonard deserves a night off. On the other hand it kills his rhythm every time.
Yeah it is trap game..if you are going to rest Kawhi, TP/Manu have to play..Don't trust the rest of stiffs we have to score without any play-makers holding their hands..
It's the kings and the thunder, play the majority and finish it off early.
Right on.
Rest Kwa.
Rest Tony for the next two games -- it really makes a difference. And rest Kawhi if he'll let you. Have him recharge for the OKC game. I'd also like to have Green take like a week off to figure out what the is wrong with his shot. Him not being able to come out of his spiral against the Rockets of all teams is very concerning. Sit him, start Murray at the two unless you decide to bring in a buyout wing and see what you can do.
I already picture Cauley-Stein posterizing Gasol and blocking a weak Aldridge postup on the other end....
Kawhi defin. deserves the night off. He's been busting his ass like no other and carrying the load.
Sit LMA and Kawhi
Parker
Green
Anderson
Lee
Dedmon
Mills
Manu
Simmons
Bertans
Gasol
should be enough to beat Sacramento
"closest player to MJ"
"needs a night off at 25"
lol
rest the old guys
dont sit LMA... sad as it is to say, he needs a cupcake game to get some confidence
Doubt Leonard and Aldridge would agree to a rest.
I'd just rest Parker and Manu.
Gasol needs to play. He had a long vacation.
I'd like Parker and Gasol to rest so that Murray and Bertans can play big minutes
We`ll know how much Pop wants 1st seed then. He could afford to sit old guys, but Kawhi must go, hopefully with quick blowout, he`ll get less mintues
Gasol needs all the reps he can get, and as has been said resting Leonard takes him out of his rhythm so he should play both games (albeit very limited minutes against the Kings).
Nobody. It's a home game. If they're too tired you punt the @ OKC game which is loseable even with everyone playing.
Manu. We need everyone else. I would just limit Kawhi's minutes. Nobody else needs to rest.
