It is a business. You could just as easily argue the Spurs are playing 4 games in 5 nights and the coach thinks it's bad for the long term business of his franchise, which is winning games. I don't know if I agree with that, and I'm sure Popovich is snubbing his nose at the scheduling a bit... but fining them for what they did tonight is completely outrageous.

I dont care that they didnt play, but to send them back home and not even be there. just have them at the game dress them up or make them sit out, but at least go to the game and be their with their teammates. Thats the only part i dont like.

Thats a terrible analogy, because in basketall, you have a bench that is part of the team that can go in and play. For a band, you really dont. Sure they change members every now and again, but there is no back ups really.

and @ the heat as well. Minimal substitutions for our bench guys and they take the heat down to the wire.

Sure. It's a business. Popovich has the right to set the lineup as he sees fit.
And so does TNT. They can simply say, "**** you, Spurs. We're not televising your regular season shit anymore." Because that's a business, too, and they have to make money just as much as the Spurs have to win in the playoffs. |

Mill took 3 straight terrible 3s.
But without stars, you likely won't close out a lot of close games.

It's a perfect analogy. You watch the heat to watch lebron, you don't go to watch them to see Norris cole. Lebron, right now, just took over the game. I'd like to have seen parker or ginobli counter, but am treated to Patty Mills.

The funny thing is this was probably better for "business" than anything else they could've done. There's an NFL game going on tonight between two good teams and now everyone's talking about the NBA.
