    We need a well-rested coach. Can't have Mike blow all his energy yelling at regular season refs and waste good half-time speech material on regular season games.

    Do you agree or is seeding more important than rest?

    Tilman can't afford to rest MDA. No days off.

    MDA's a baller. He plays through pain and fatigue.

    No, rest is "bad" & will make you rusty. Rockets don't need a rusty Mike D'Antoni because he had too much rest.

    I thought he was already resting by calling as few timeouts as possible.

    Dude coaches the whole game, maybe he can coach on a minutes restriction. Surprised House hasn't subbed in as coach for him yet.

    No need to take the rest of the season off or anything. Maybe just sit out the back-to-back road games vs Kings and Clippers on 4/2 and 4/3.

    Old man needs rest.

    He should be counting sheep rather than counting threes!

    He has to coach, it will hurt his COTY chances if he sits out.
