Because winning a regular season game in November isn't winning in the NBA?

Honestly unless you can do better than 72-10 no one gives a shite what your regular season record is. If the Spurs think resting, against s team with 4 days rest and having played 3 games in btw that, is the best option who is Stern to say differently.

I'm in the minority here but I agree with Stern. What's to stop fans from asking for discounts or refunds because the star players are not attending the game because they're too tired.

Miami is a bad example because they have multiple superstars, but lets say Pop does this for a Bobcats game. You paid top dollar for a ticket because you wanted to see Tim Duncan. Now you find out he's not playing because he's too tired. This is what I think Stern is trying to avoid.
