For instance, the Suns are currently fighting for a wildcard spot. If they are blowing out the Grizzles by the third quarter (by 25+ points), would Vogel keep Booker/KD in to maximize their point differential, or still dump out the bench as in a normal NBA game?

Suns left the starters in at the end vs the blazers bench. Billups got his feelings hurt.
I think yall are about to win by 60 against us
Probably not because no one actually cares about winning the tournament. These are just regular season games
As said by others, it’s happening and players/coaches are very aware. It’s actually also made fans a little more energized during these days and the Tournament games are played with a bit more of an edge…so far it’s done what the league sought out to accomplish.
There was like .30 seconds left in that lakers and jazz game and I was actually screaming at my tv for the lakers to keep going but then I realized we already had a wild ass point differential so it didn’t really matter lol
I don’t think you can “run up the score” at the highest level of the best professional league
These are pros, world class athletes. It’s not a mismatched Jr HS football game where one team has 16 total players and the final score is 91-0
