How can they tell if a guy is injured or not? They dont designate DNP's until after the game.

Exactly...so if they have the choice between putting a scrub in that hasn't played, or keeping a star in that *might* foul and result in an extra free throw, nothing more, that seems like an easy choice.

If a guy is dressed and hasn't played, how can he be hurt? Easy rule to fix, you don't dress if you can't play.

Being that it has happened once in 30 years I doubt they will bother changing rules. Especially ones that allowed Robert Sacre more playing time.

I agree, they won't, until somebody abuses it.

Should be quite the lineup Popovich puts out there tonight against the Nets. Saw where Diaw is questionable now too.
