not ready to play? this is "prime" remember, one season where they were at their best.
the thing is all the starters would play big minutes regardless, erving, moncrief, gilmore etc.... so the bench would be used to come in and make an impact, or cover a hole whether it be on offense or D... Arenas and Curry can still score almost at will against this jazz team, and okafor/smith and great defensively regardless of who they are on
