Pop doesn't want to play his players in the 4th game in 5 nights, so what? Deal with it..If he thinks this is his best method to maximize his team's chances to win a ring, why be mad?

Because I'm a fan of good games in the NBA? I'm glad I didn't buy tickets!

Stern can eat a dick.

Pop has been doing this shit for years and Stern has said nothing about it, but I guess since Stern did it against his precious Miami Heat fucking up his TV ratings now he wants to have a problem with it.

Stern can miss me with that.

You won't take short term heartache to reach longterm goal?

So why not just rest them against the Magic? It's not like the commute from Orlando to Miami took a lot out of them. Yes, Pop has done this before & I hated it every time in the past that he has done it too. But this is the team with the best record in the East, the defending champions, on the first game on TNT with Charles Barkley on commentary. If I were Stern, I would be pissed too.

He also waited until the last minute to let anyone know too, so the fans that bought tickets to this game are going to be pissed. It also fucked with betting lines, for whatever that is worth (nothing, really).

He didn't want them playing back to back..Easier to play the 1st of back to back and have consecutive days rest

Pop is just afraid of the best team in basketball.

**Notorious** · 11-29-2012, 07:36 PM

Because the Magic was the easier win and against Orlando they weren't playing their fourth game in five nights.

The thing irritates me is that Pop has been doing this for years but now since he did against the Heat, now all these people wanna make a big deal out of it and try to get the Spurs fined and shit like that.

There should be some type of NBA rule that states you can't play a certain number of white guys at the same time.
