I doubt this would even be an issue if they were playing a bottom-tier team. It's the Spurs, it's not like one game will really make the difference in the standings unlike a team fighting for a playoff spot the end of the year.

Thought this would be the first time something like this has happened, but it isn't.

NBA/Stern fined the 89-90 Lakers $25k for sitting Magic and Worthy in the final game of season. Riley wasn't too happy about it.
quote:

"I have an obligation to our management," the Lakers coach said Tuesday."I decide who the heck I want to play."If (the league) is going to start getting in the way of who I want to play and when I want to play them, maybe they ought to come out here and put on the coach's shirt themselves . . .
