Mike Brown has decided to rest his starters down the stretch. Some people are criticizing the move saying that LeBron and Co. will lose their rhythm and timing for the playoffs. Others think it is ridiculous that a 25 year old player needs to rest up before the playoffs.

Check Cavaliers last games:
Thu 08 @ Chicago L 108-109
Fri 09 vs Indiana L 113-116
Sun 11 vs Orlando L 92-98
Wed 14 @ Atlanta L 83-99
They lost every game in which LeBron James was not playing.
Can this effect the season? maybe!
But I find it normal for teams to rest their players before play-off if they have guaranteed their position.
