Eric Bledsoe shouldn't even agree with this. They're gonna shut him down to get a pick hoping he'll get replaced.

He may not be happy about it but it's best for the team. It's not worth playing him and hurting the teams lottery chances.



Then there's his injury history. Bledsoe has had a career year and he's been healthy for most of the season. His value has never been higher. If the Suns draft another point guard, there will be plenty of teams interested in a healthy Bledsoe in the offseason. There's no point risking him getting hurt (and damaging his trade value) playing meaningless games the rest of the season.

They can't. Teams can do it whatever they please in that regard. I think the NBAPA would have to step in and say something about lack of play time affecting potential contracts but that may be too flimsy of an argument to stand on.

Well they then NBAPA has to try & do something. We saw what the Pelicans did with Davis last year.

This is why I shyt on people that think rest is mandotory. It wasn't like that until literally 2010 when Pop started doing it and the whole league decided to play copycat.

Now Thibs plays his guys 37-38 MPG and people lose their mind and think he's running them into the ground as if Lebron/Kobe/Duncan/fukking every superstar ever weren't averaging 40+ at one point.
