1. Start
2. Manu
3. Popdamnit
There is no in way Manu does not start from now on. Look at Detroit. Their starting 5 is awesome and their bench is below average; yet, they are the best team in the league by far. Pop, your strategy has failed. No big deal. Correct it NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Flip is playing the Detroit starters way too much. Come April, May and June, those guys will be worn out. I think Pop has ed up the rotation this year, but at least he isn't wearing guys out.
Rip Hamilton: 37 mpg
Tayshaun Prince: 37 mpg
Ben Wallace: 36.7 mpg
Chauncey Billups: 35.5
Rasheed Wallace: 34.9
Tim Duncan: 35.6 mpg
Tony Parker: 34.9 mpg
Tim and Tony are playing about just as many minutes as the Pistons starters. So, why is it "wearing them out" when it's the Piston, but not the Spurs?
i don't think the det starters are playing much more than they did last year, and they got stronger as the finals went on.
Because it is only 2 starters vs all 5 starters.
EDIT: Jam got it first...
BTW, the Pistons starters are playing less minutes than last year...
They're playing less than last year as a whole (and today we had no backup PG, forcing us to playing Tayshaun at the Point). Plus Tayshaun (leading us in minutes) is only playing about 1 minute more per game than Duncan (who is older and injured). So does that mean that Duncan is going to be worn out for the playoffs? Or does it just affect the Pistons?
I just don't see how 5 seperate players playing 34-36mpg is any worse than Duncan, Parker, and Bowen playing that many minutes. You do realize the players are seperate people, correct? Individuals don't get MORE fatigued just because they're teammates are playing just as much as they are.
The fact is, we have no one in the top 35 in minutes per game. So I don't think it's an issue.
Bowen plays 35 minutes per as well...
Chauncey is older then Tony, Rasho/Nazr is two people vs Detroit's one. I still say so many minutes for the Pistons starters will hurt them in the long run.
If Tony, Duncan, and Bowen can play 35+, why can't the Pistons? I just don't get it. The difference is we don't have role players in our starting lineup like Rasho and Finley. All of them would play the same minutes they do here if they were on seperate teams, and no one would say a word. People are just baffled by depth of out starting lineup.
