Odds are he will get some rest here and there, mainly in back-to-backs but how many games do you guys think he'll have off? Will it be just a handful of games or will it be as extreme as it is for Mr. Load Management himself? Do you guys think it's even reasonable for him to be load managed even if he shows no signs of setbacks?
Probably play around 68 games and 28 mpg. No need to play him like Thibs played Deng or Butler in Chicago tbh.
Goal is to get him through the season without a reoccurring injury. A rest plan is a fair plan provided he doesn't get close to his uncle and chill in New York.
Probably at the beginning. 1st year back from ACL he will be babied, similar to guys like Livingston, or Dalvin Cook in NFL
Nah. Pop said the other day they obviously won't play him 36+ mpg right out of the gates but the docs have not put any restrictions on him so i don't think we have to worry about DM being a coddled boy like nephew was last year
He should play 32 mpg minimum
What do I look like, a lawyer?
Nobody in this forum knows waste of time
White conditioning will be far better early in the season, and therefore I think White plays big 4th quarter minutes which will reduce Murray well under 30. That's my theory.
but it is a part of the year I hate most---the anticipation of a new season and the answers to all our speculation. I can't wait so will waste some time. My crystal ball says that
Pop doesn't like to play players, even superstars, what he considers too many minutes. He will try to keep them fresh by bench time when he can get it for them against easy teams, matchups,,injuries, etc. Murry is not going to average 30 minutes is my guess. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a lot of bench time early--and hope he can handle the reining in. It is always the nature of players to minimize their injury because they want to play so bad.
Let's get this started.
