    Travis Scott sits court side for the opener and gives Gerald Green his key to the city after dropping 40 in a win over the Thunder.

    Calling it now.

    I can't pretend to be a rulebook expert, especially this year, but I think that's the point of what Hollinger is saying. If we can't suit 8 players tonight then we can bring Green back for the night. Crazy stuff.

    Calvin Murphy can still hit free throws. Sign him up.

    Damn Silas should win coach if the year if we’re above 500 and make the playoffs.

    I don’t wish this nightmare drama filled start on any first time head coach

    Yes!!!!!

    Let's do it.
    At least we get to give Green a farewell home game.

    Play him 48mins. I'll watch that.

    They should just start allowing more players on the bench. I'd love to watch different players being featured on some regular season games, regular seasons are long enough to accommodate this, especially with the all-stars typically sitting out games to save their legs for more important games.

    Does get a ring later on? Probably yes... if he spends $200 or more at a participating Landry's location

    Feel like you need to split the squad into 2 groups of 8. So that if one group infected. The 2nd group isn't. And you get a game?

    Also expand the roster to 20 players.

    If anyone can hol it dine in troubling times, it's Gerald Green. Please re-sign and extend him for life.

    We did/do have an open roster spot. We cut Green because we couldn’t pay both him and Clemons. Had nothing to do with roster size. The title of that big GARM thread was misleading, and made a lot of ppl wrongly think it was a roster crunch. It was a HardCap crunch fitting salary after Clemons contract got guaranteed due to injury. The plan was probably to trade/cut Clemons prior to his injury, to afford Green, but we couldn’t save money after injury.

    Why don’t they cancel the game? How is this fair? Or cancel the season really if this is going to affect outcomes of games.
