OK, you guys may be right. Maybe we are going nowhere without using our bench... from the beginning. We will see...

In my opinion Rick's 1st priority will be to survive at least one round in the playoffs. Even if it means (taking the risk of) running our core into the ground. I think deep down Rick does not trust our bench as much as last year and he will simply try to gamble....(heavy minutes + short series). To use a bench in the playoffs from the beginning, one has to be pretty confident about 1. bench quality 2. the possibility to make a deep playoff run... is Rick ?
