Didn't travel to Memphis last night. I have no issue with players resting. My issue is the NBA's dynamic pricing structure. Fans paid more to see Cleveland than they would for Phoenix, for instance, and basically saw Phoenix vs. Memphis last night. Ridiculous. What say you?

I find it odd that they didn't even travel.

Is it any wonder Barkley thinks today's NBA guys are pussies ?

I understand why a coach would allow it but I feel bad for the fans. I know that has happened up in Milwaukee with LeBron teams as well.

I understand resting guys, but why all 3 in the same game? They basically all but guaranteed themselves a loss last night, and they did lose. What happens when they lose the conference by 1 game?

Isaiah Thomas really laid into them on NBA TV last night...how they have the best doctors, the best facilities, the best nutrition, the best travel accommodations, how hardly anyone even plays 40 minutes anymore...and they still need rest



also, they were discussing the new collective bargaining agreement and Isaiah said something about how he wished there was something in there regarding the WNBA. Not sure exactly what his point was, but was going on some spiel about they need to benefit from the popularity of the game blah blah....they cut back over to Seiku Smith and he started talking about the one & done rule and Isaiah cut him off and said "you don't care about the WNBA?" and he just kept talking, Vince Ceillini and Shaq were laughing....it's ridiculous in general, no one cares about the WNBA in the least, but it's especially funny coming from him

Maybe Isaiah could make it as great as the CBA. :lol:

They really should go if nothing more that to allow some kid to see them shoot around pregame.
