Should we rest our main rotation players for this game?

Poll closed Apr 10, 2019.
  1. Absolutely, our main guys need rest. And we need to avoid the possibility of injuries

    16.3%
  2. Yes. We've already guaranteed HCA. It doesn't really make much difference between 3rd or 4th Seed

    22.4%
  3. Yes. Although the 3rd Seed would be ideal, winning this game doesn't guarantee it.

    6.1%
  4. Yes. We need to tank for the 4th Seed so we can play Utah

    6.1%
  5. Yes. We need to tank for the 4th Seed so we can avoid OKC

    2.0%
  6. Yes. We need to tank for the 4th Seed so we can avoid San Antonio

    0.0%
  7. No. Do not rest our players because the 3rd Seed is still in play.

    32.7%
  8. No. We want to go into the Playoffs w/rhythm & momentum. We don't want our players being rusty.

    12.2%
  9. No. Do not rest our players. The fans deserve to see our team play at full strength in the finale.

    Simons is learning a thing or two from Dame. Just played a full quarter and looked like he can hang. Tough. How long until he gets a bobblehead?

    They are like 50/50 stupid on his part vs stupid on the refs' part. No in between.

    Agreed. I'm really not trying to make too much fun of him. It was just really obvious things have gone south since the trade. Sad more than anything. We all know how much he's struggled with his weight.

    I never really want to speculate but let me speculate. Biggie regretted leaving college early and has been depressed since.

    I'm worried that his shot release will make him a big time streak shooter. He looks like he kind of flings it forward. I like him though.

    Refs taking the night off for the most part as well. Bigger hooked Trent's head right in front of the ref......zebra just stood there.

    I hope biggie goes the way of oliver miller if it has to be this way. Miller was productive at least.

    Was right in front of him. I know it's game 82 and we're tanking but seriously, the ref's cannot do that.
