McCoskey has a bit about the starters sitting, and AA still coming off the bench last night: Quote:
Billups, Hamilton and Wallace will have five days off before playing against New Jersey on Friday. Within those five days, they will have two and possibly three full practices.
"It's good," Billups said of the game off. "I am going to pick and choose a couple, just to get a little rest and relaxation. But, with eight games left, I plan on playing most of them just to try and be ready for the playoffs."
Saunders didn't think any player would sit out more than two games.
Rodney Stuckey started in place of Billups, and Jarvis Hayes got the nod in Hamilton's spot. Saunders said he chose to bring Arron Afflalo off the bench to match him up with Timberwolves sixth man Rashad McCants.
