Get ready for a talking heads explosion on ESPN tomorrow. David Stern blasted Greg Popovich for resting the San Antonio Spurs' Big 3, saying that the Spurs would face significant . He sent Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, and Manu Ginobili home instead of bringing them to Miami. Popovich also didn't bring along Danny Green, who's led the team in minutes during the first month of the season. Tonight's game was the Spurs fourth in five nights, and their sixth road game in ten days.
What exactly can David Stern fine the Spurs for? Good planning? Miami hadn't played a game since Saturday, so even the best effort from San Antonio would've likely resulted in a loss. Stern is just pissed because Popovich rested his stars during a nationally televised game on TNT. I look forward to seeing what rule the NBA commish makes up on the fly so he can penalize San Antonio.
