I am not a believer in tired legs in the days of 30 years ago yes I could buy in but with year round training and nutrition not to mention a trainer who designs a regimen for the season I believe the players are prepared for the grind of the season also with the amount of media timeouts per half I don't think players are as leg weary as they used to be but I will say a nagging injury or soreness is possible but again with trainers and strength and conditioning coaches these problems can be managed and I figure I am in the minority and probably people disagree with me but my father who has since passed always said 16 to 25 year olds should be in the best shape of their life and never be tired for what it's worth that is my 2 cents 

If you want to believe Xavier Johnson’s offensive efficiency tanking in the late stages of games and his repeatedly losing his handle against pressure in several end-game scenarios has nothing to do with his intense usage at both ends of the floor, more power to you.

Why even have two point guards on the roster?

 

Athletes at this level are well trained, well prepared, and have lots of resources at their disposal, but they are still human. I know first-hand things on this front have evolved over the last 15-20 years, but overuse can and will have negative effects on physical mechanics and mental acuity.

Pit equally matched athletes against one another in any contest and if one consistently exerts more energy over time than the other, who do you think will have the edge the longer the contest drags out?

That's really a long sentence. 😊
