The point of the NBA is to entertain fans.
Putting all that together - Pop (manager) did his players a solid (head start on their year end reviews, yay!) but did it by blowing off a the aforementioned huuuge game (meeting with the company's main client).
Being fresh for the postseason is nice and all, but kinda pointless if nobody's watching it.
