Thanks pops for resting Lamarcus, Green, and Manu. Too bad he couldn't have thrown Kawhi in the mix. Spurs B team have still proven to be formidable.

Spurs B team could still win 55 games.

We've been using our b team all year long.
When was the last time Hill played? When was the last time he played more than 2 games? It seems like he hasn't cared much ever since the jazz didn't offer to break the bank and resign him.
And favors? Is he even alive? I've basically eliminated favors from my jazz roster. At this point, Lyles seems to have a brighter nba future than favors.

I don't know of any Jazz fan that wants us to win while the Spurs are resting players. The whole point of every game is overcoming adversity and when your resting the players that make it difficult for you to win, it's not really a win, it just looks that way on paper.
I have an idea. Let's hope that POP plays everybody and we still kick their ***.

I feel your frustration with Hill. It's hard watching a guy of his caliber only play in 50 games the whole year. But also you never know how a players body breaks down. You would think only 9 years in the NBA and 30 years old, he would have a lot more duability than what he has shown. However you look at players from the past like Isiah Thomas and after 13 years he said that he was broken down and had nothing left.
I'm not saying that Hill is there, but you never know about the time that the team has with them. Perhaps the Jazz are making sure that he is fully healthy come playoff time? I don't agree with him sitting out so many games, but we don't know what his body is telling him to do.
D. Favors upsets me, because after coming back from injury, his is clearly way out of shape and lacking that same drive that he had prior to the injury. We need an overall better effort out of our entire team.

A W is a W. Not Jazz's fault that Popovich or some other coach decides to sit his players. If they do not want to be considered that they have lost it, they better play all their hands.
Worse is that you still lose when they sit everyone. And this is always possible when Spurs are the case.

Aldridge, Manu and Green are all sitting, and Murray is out too but been out.

Oh please. Sure I'd like to whip a full strength Spurs team. But I'll take a win over a depleted Spurs team as well. Jazz need "5" and I don't really care how they get there. It's still a W

Though dramatic, he does have a point. 3 of our 5 starters have missed a combined 79 games this year. The fragility of Hood, Hill, and Favors have made consistency a pipe dream for this year.
Only one dude is resting for them (Manu, the super old one). The others have legitimate injuries.
it's actually really easy to rest players. just give them some "injury" and they should be able to rest players. not sure how league will handle it
