But I mean I got why he did it he was trying to salvage Parker, Gino and Duncan who all were in their 30's....but for the life of me I can't understand how a 24 year old needs to be rested. Especially in today's NBA that's not nearly as physical as it use to be. Just sit back and launch up a 3 pointer.

They aren’t allowed to use the rest designation anymore. The NBA doesn’t allow it, so they started using “load management”. Now I think they have to make something up like back tightness or knee surgery recovery management or something. Nearly positive LeBron has been given the rest tag, when it was allowed.
