I think the front office needs to alert the medical staff about the contusion epidemic sweeping the nation and how they need to protect the players with some prescribed rest and time off. We need to see a lot of the two way guys.

Jazz are probably pushing Lauri for the All Star game. After that, I'd imagine they'll rest him more.

Yeah. Also had the thought that we never know what’s going on in the locker room. I could see them needing to break up losing streaks. Tony was pretty insistent on the pod that the FO knows what they have to do.

Not allow Lauri to play 40 plus minutes 2 nights in a row.

Some teams, even teams trying to win, sit dudes for back to backs. Especially after overtime games and especially tanking teams and especially when the 2nd night of the back to back is against another team trying for a top pick and especially when your own top pick is protected.

The Pacers sat Nembhard tonight for "Back Soreness." The Nets are sitting MPJ on B2B's but let's play all of our players at full strength and we can only muster a pathetic 13 wins with an incoming 0 help from the draft this season in a full loaded board.

Our problem is Lauri has been an All-Star and is thus subject to the NBAs rules on sitting healthy players.
