Well... yeah! if you get some other core parts of scrum right then nobody should be burning out. Time boxing and point estimation are about figuring out what your team's sustainable pace is and using that to avoid burnout. Scrum isn't about developing faster its about working toward more sustainable and predictable development. If your management doesn't understand that and respect it no methodology will fix your problem. I admit as someone else mentioned that sprint was a poor choice of words. So say iteration instead. Problem solved.
