Example- I have 2010-2011 Lebron. His 3063 minutes averages to 37.35/game over 82 games. I played him about 36/game in our season. I know you guys usually up the minutes for the playoffs. What's a realistic increase for him & my other starters? I have a Shaq, Rondo, & Jerry West. Their minutes all vary, but if I have a decent idea for Lebron, that should help me figure the others out. I have partial seasons from a couple Rodmans, so I don't see him increasing much at all.

do you have a bye?

No, I won't. I'm the 5th seed.

then not too much - the minutes parameters reset/recalibrate for the play-offs so you don't carry forward anything you might have 'banked' from the regular season an your minutes usage has to stay pretty similar to what you used in the regular season or you'll start fatiguing

of course 98% of your starter might be worth it in some games, and short series give you a tiny bit of wiggle room if you can win out quickly
