Shutter' Down Boys!

Like Winnipeg City Workers on a barely raining day, lets take a quick look at what you can expect to see as far as who's resting and whose not in the home stretch.

Danny Granger is always a risk but Indy is toast as far as playoff hopes, and with lighter games comin up his minutes shouldnt take to much of a hit.

Marc 'Centra' Gas called it quits for injury purposes, but the potent mix of youth & dead playoff dreams in Memphis means Rudy, OJ and Zach are gonna keep on truckin. And Conley was an absolute sex panda in march, now that it doesn't count he's gonna show you what he's got.

The OKC freaks are fighting to get they're foot in the door of the playoff rollercoaster, which means that Durant is appalling every night, and Jeff Green fanatics like us are pitching tents left and right. Russell Westbrook is intergral for this battle as well, so keep running him.

The Usual Suspects might see a day or two rest for the Lakers. Kobe, Pau and even Odom (thinks he deserves some rest). Ron Artest is probably gonna see some sideline next week too, after he poses shirtless on the cover of another Mens Health magazine.

Gallinari & David Lee are free to roam the countryside triple dubbing at will, especially considering Wilson Chandler & Al Harrington are both shutdown for reasons other than the 0% chance of NY making the playoffs.

Iguodala might succomb to certain borderline injuries now that playoffs are out and take a rest, and i'd be completely shocked if Elton 'John' Brand didnt miss any time. Thaddeus Young? Pffft, see ya next year.

Boston and Atlanta are batteling it out for 3rd seed in the East, the bruisers of both teams should be making every minute count, which contributes considerably to Fantasy owners. Give lots of run to Ray Ray, KG, Ragin' Rajon, Pierce, Perkins(if thats your thing) as well as J-Smooth, Joe Joe, Bibby, Crawdaddy and the big Horf.

Dallas & Denver are engulfed in a battle for position so both teams are projected to let the regulars do they're thing till the end.

Charlotte is so close to theyre first playoff birth Michael Jordon can feel it gently massaging his shoulders, expect Gerald, Captain Jax and Felton to freak like they've got a pair.

Toronto is still trying to sneak into the big show, and it's gonna take thick efforts from CB4 and Nani every night to stave off Chi-Town. Don't expect any rest to be dealt out by Jay 'main vein' Triano.

Van Gundy can't sleep at night until he's seen Dwight go 20-10 while missing 8 of 10 free throws, so thats a good sign for owners.

And finally Monta Ellis is batteling a mystery flu, how much more can the little guy take? He's projected to see the end of the teams current roadtrip, but till then theres a few hot upstarts in Morrow, Watson, Reggie Williams and Tolliver who'd gladly latch onto whatever minutes come they're way.
