when all's said and done, boyes will have played 16 games in 26 days and will have gone on back-to-back/coast-to-coast road trips totaling 10 consecutive games...he will have played five sets of back-to-backs and will have had a grand total of two days off without travel involved...
good thing he's 28 yrs. old and in his prime...
oh, and did i mention that not only did he change teams in the process, as of late he's changed positions having been placed at center due to a rash of injuries?
