Gregg Popovich Is Going To Tank A Playoff Game

Stay connected with SB Nation

The NBA has released schedules for the Western Conference semifinals, even though we only know two of the four teams that will participate. Each series features a back-to-back. The Spurs vs. Clippers/Grizzlies series will have Games 3 and 4 on Saturday and Sunday.

Spurs coach Gregg Popovich has consistently sat old men Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili on the second night of back-to-backs this season. Ergo, it's totally possible that Pop will effectively tank a real life playoff game to rest his stars for the rest of the series, the conference finals and the NBA Finals.
