Awesome stuff Slipster!

Tays reduction in minutes really surprised me. I figured he had a bit less this season, but that was more than expected.

Of course Dice's minutes are up due to his promotion this season, but that worries me more than anything else. Will he (and his knees) be able to hold out in the playoffs?

I think Flip has done an OK job of getting the bench/youngsters some minutes this season, but I think he has had the opportunity to get them even more minutes along the way. Keeping the starters in the game with 15-20 point leads late in the game, pulling the non-starters at the first sign of trouble, etc.

I actually really like the way he distributed the minutes and rested the starters the last month or so of the regular season.

Overall, I'm willing to give him a passing grade for the regular season, but the playoffs might be an entirely different story.
