  1. “I really don’t care” best way to put it. His players (reg season) did not even crack the top 10 in min played per game

    Jalen looks like a YouTube essayist in this clip lol

    Jalen coming in at the end looking like he’s coming up with 3 new conspiracy theories per minute was gold

    That’s my coach and 1A. All the minutes talk is just clickbait journalism.

    I hear what he saying and I’m going to get downvoted to shit but we watched all of these guys breakdown with injuries from too many minutes at one point or another. For example Isiah Hartenstien literally had a minute restriction due to an injury from playing too much. One that lasted the rest of the season. What I justified the extended minutes as was there was no one else to play. There just wasn’t enough healthy bodies towards the end.

  6. He should just say what he really means, most super stars are Primadonna pussies

    The minutes thing is overblown for the most part but it is a fact that we were routinely playing guys over 40 minutes a night after we got hit with all those injuries in january/february. He needs to be able to just play jacob toppin or shake milton for 10-15 minutes when that happens even if it lowers our chances of winning. The reward is not worth the risk

  8. For those commenting without actually watching the full segment. Thibs actually has some really valid points. He said that he knows what his players might need after playing 40 min the night before and in practice he’ll adjust and maybe do just a walkthrough for Josh or sub him out early. So box score watching for minutes per game is only a small part of talking about a player’s body and the recovery 

  9. Jalen has been up til 3am w that broken thumb studying the physics of a basketball in motion my god get that man an ambien

    I’ve watched a lot of Thibs pressers this year and this is the only one where he sounds delusional lol he’s just like “I dont feel pain I assume you don’t either” truly incredible

    I love these guys man. Great to have a group of guys enjoying playing good basketball together at the garden again. This 3-5 year run is going to be fun.

    These guys are fucking idiots. 

    There’s a huge difference between 42 minutes of playoff basketball and 48 minutes. 

    In terms of real world time it’s like a 20 minute difference of rest. 

    Go play your heart out for 48 minutes. Do that enough times and you’re sure to be injured. 

    Look at luol deng. Look at Josh. Look at Jimmy Butler.
