    Difference between 3 seed and 4 seed is Warriors in WCF or Warriors in second round. 3 seed is better.

    I never equated the situations. I simply said that maybe CJ could use more time off and it’s probably not worth chasing a 3 seed, especially given how exhausted Dame has looked in the past 2 games.

    We’re gonna be heavy underdogs vs rockets, nuggets, or warriors. One may be better than the other, but I don’t see the point in chasing the seed. Our goal imo should be getting out of the first round without Nurkic, we should prioritize for that goal.

    There just isn't any easy matchup in the west across the board...getting homecourt is all that's left...

    Because a game in November counts the same as a game in early April.

    Clearly was a joke, although I admit I wasn’t aware the medical staff changed - it clearly didn’t affect my broader argument. Ironically, your lack of good faith and inability to acknowledge a joke as a joke highlights the same sort of devious debate tactics that you’re accusing me of.

    They don’t though because the April games are used to get in a rhythm for the playoffs. Any coach would rather have a full roster in April than November.

    Sometimes we use green fonts to signal jokes in posts...my jokes fail all the time, but no forum member should ever be accused of using the dreaded DDT!

    Theres no to rush reinjury to try and get someone back into a rhythm. CJ isn't going to get back into a rhythm if he's not 100%.

    Nah. That isn't what you said at all. But it is what you are saying now and it is probably as right as any other scenario. So good on ya.

    Yeah I hear you, but I heard CJ say something in his podcast about how he doesn’t need regular season reps, that the playoffs are a different animal anyway - and it’s playoff experience that really matters (which he has).

    Couple that with the fact that we’re basically only playing for a largely-meaningless 3 v 4 seed and I favor resting him til the playoffs like Poppovich doesZ

    Quote me saying different and I’ll explain how you’re not understanding the context.
