Garnett wanted to play Sunday, but Rivers benched him. "He wasn't happy about it, but that's all right," Rivers says. "That's what a coach does sometimes."
As for tonight's game against Miami, Rivers said, "Garnett may play. I doubt that, but he may. I just think we just go day to day with it."
Reporters then asked Doc whether he was resting Garnett to lose games again. Last season Rivers came under scrutiny for possibly resting players to improve Boston's draft position.
"Yeah, I'm tanking games," Rivers said. "We really want that 30th pick."
