The Warriors are going to get WAY more rest than the EC Champ. How big of an advantage do you all think that is?

Meh, they played 12 games opposed to 9 games for the Bucks in the first two rounds. The Bucks are also healthier than the Warriors right now. Of course, this is assuming they stay healthy and actually win the conference finals. 

The long rest can work both ways. Usually a team is rusty after being off for so long, but the rest was needed for the Dubs who are banged up.

It's not 'meh', that's a huge deal.  Durant, Iggy and Boogie getting like 10 days of pure rest.  That's massive. The first two rounds for the Bucks were easy.  The Pistons were like having a bye week and the Celtics posed damn near no challenge.

Meh about having an advantage...And yes, it is meh. It allows the Warriors to get healthy, but it damn sure isn't a huge factor for the Bucks that they get three or four days of rest instead of nine days of rest. If the series goes 7 games? Then that is different. But long rests have proven to be a negative for some teams in game 1 of the series. I mean the Bucks had a solid rest for the Celtics and laid a complete egg in game 1.

The Warriors are injured, though.  In absolutely no way is this a negative for them.

Holy ish dude, follow along at what I'm saying. I stated the long break allows them to get healthier, but in terms of just a pure advantage having more days off than say the Bucks? It isn't that big of an advantage.
