Maybe this doesn't entirely answer your question, but unless games 81 and 82 have seeding implications for you, I usually use those to rest my top players and freshen them up for the postseason. I haven't done any kind of side-by-side analysis to see if that helps them statistically, but generally that will end up giving them 4-5 days off, and by the time the first playoff game comes around, they're all listed as healthy/rested. Hope this was at least a little helpful!
