Real games are some of the best practice that you can get. You can't ever play well in games that you want to win unless you practice and prepare first. Look at how a coach like BB will use pre-season: if things aren't up to snuff he'll keep the starters in and beat the piss out of people. I don't agree with laying down in live games. Allowing extra injury healing time for dudes who need it, rotating in more young guys to see what they have, trying new things that may or may not work well...I'd get all of that. Laying down on purpose though? I can't get behind that at all.
