HOUSTON -- Rockets coach Mike DAntoni isnt a fan of resting players.Without judging or calling out any teams, DAntoni said the NBA needs to look into some kind of uniformity regarding players getting rest, particularly on road games.My thought on holding people out in mass, Im not really for it, DAntoni said before the Rockets 132-98 win over the?Sacramento Kings?on Wednesday. You think of the kid that travels three hours to see somebody and they dont show up, its tough. So its complicated. I know every coach is trying to do the best for his team and trying to win. He has to do what he thinks is right to win. The league may a have to look at it and figure it out.The subject of rest came up Wednesday as the Kings elected to sit power forward DeMarcus Cousins.Kings coach Dave Joerger explained Cousins was sitting to get a break after playing four games in six days. During that span, Cousins averaged 34.5 minutes while scoring 24.8 points and grabbing 13 rebounds.Theres just different points in the season, it looks like hes carrying quite a load, and I dont mean by weight, I mean by just playing, Joerger said. Hes getting [36] the other night, 15, 16 rebounds, hes got to do this, hes got to do that, hes got to take care of all this and that. Sometimes its just good to get a break. When you have the opportunity, in this case, three days of rest [before their next game]. There are opportunities to do it when you can maximize the number of days of rest and give guys a chance to recharge mentally and physically.The Cleveland Cavaliers?also sat LeBron James, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love for Wednesdays game at Memphis, the second night of a home-road back-to-back against the Grizzlies. Clevelands starters average 31.9 minutes per game, third in the league.Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban defended the Cavaliers decision.Look, on the one hand it seems unfair to the Memphis fans, but on the other hand the science is all there that says guys need rest, Cuban said, according to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. The one thing worse than a visiting team not getting to see a star player is the home teams fans missing a lot of games from that star player.As we get more scientifically driven, youll see teams trying to play guys fewer minutes and fewer games because it protects their body. If you protect a guys body, fans get to see them in more games overall.The Rockets do rest backup center Nene for health reasons for the second of back-to-back games. However, James Harden, who led the NBA in minutes per game last season at 38.1, is second in total minutes played this season at 953. Houston is also seventh in the league in starters minutes at 31.0.Houston has an excellent strength and conditioning staff that charts players minutes and movements during practices with a device attached to the jersey.Maybe the science is a little bit ahead of the regulations of the NBA, DAntoni said. So theyll get together and look at it, and hopefully well do whats right for the game.
