if they did they would be playing them right? again both are averaging more than 40 mins per game! They are going to wear down eventually; Minny is big and physical and thats just too many minutes for LBJ at 40; hes still playing at a high level but its too much! I look on the Lakers bench and i dont see anyone who can play and give them quality mins without hurting the team...I think that’s a silly question. Every coach in the history of basketball has found someone to bring off the bench before today. Do the Lakers have the worst bench in playoff history?
