    Brooklyn Nets resting their entire team with 1st place on the line

    And they wonder why NBA ratings are so low.

    It's pretty pathetic that these players rest so much.

    Laziest players in any league in any sport. It's pathetic and they are always pretending to be hurt. I have not watched one minute of that garbage this season.

    Kyrie Irving is not listed on the INJURY report and the Nets anticipate he will play against the 76ers, but Durant, Blake Griffin and LaMarcus Aldridge all join James Harden as unavailable in the game that will decide the season series between the East’s top two.

    It's ridiculous in hockey you have players begging to play on a b2b if the coach is considering resting them.

    Have some pride with first place on the line. These players are so lazy.

    They don't care. They know they can get away with it.

    Guess who started this crap? Popovich. The ultimate left wing clown .

    They also probably realize the 76ers would be more amped to play this game than them - hence this could be a psychological warfare move as well...

    You can still get -7.

    This should be a blowout unless Kyrie plays and puts up 50.

    Many guys do not rest games

    Lillard has rarely missed any games in his career

    Lebron has really never missed a game for load management, only games he misses in his career are real injuries

    Harden doesn't ever really rest either, look at how many games he's played every season of his career. Very durable player.

    I think it's more on coaches than players.

    Most players do not want to rest.

    I guess if you're Kyrie Irving you can do whatever you want though. Show up whenever you feel like it.

    As a Nets fan, if they need to keep sitting guys so they all finally be healthy come playoff time so be it.

    PS. Aldridge just retired. Should've manned up and played through his heart scare instead of being entitled and lazy.

    He had the heartbeat issue for some time. If he stayed around those lazy bums he would have had a heart attack.

    Kyrie has very little impact on winning his entire career

    Just a stat machine like Doncic

    When you have an 82-game preseason, you do not worry about ratings. You know they will watch because they will watch anything.

    Nets 😂

    Clippers east coached by a bum who stole the Lakers money. Dougy fresh is rolling over in his grave right now.
