Maybe Resting Shaq Will Work For the Suns
by Nate Jones Earlier this week, my colleague Brett Edwards posted his thoughts on the Suns strategy to rest Shaquille O'neal on back to back nights. With good reason, Brett thinks that the Suns should reconsider the strategy of resting Shaq on back to back nights this early in the season. I ...
