Back to backs are tough. Good for Popovich limiting the minutes, it has worked in the past it will continue to work. Deep benches are good. The Lakers have a very good bench, but they didn't do well in Portland a few nights ago on the tail end of a back to back, Kobe had to pull that one out. I forgot about our backup forward still out Trevor Ariza, he should be ready in a few weeks to come back.
