Are you joking? When I am tired I take a nap. I find it absolutely amazing that a professional athelete would miss a game because he is "tired". I think this just goes to show that the owners need to take the power back from the players. I would love to some sort of corrilation between team wins and pay. Maybe make 50% of the players pay based on contract and the other 50 based on team wins with bonus money for making the playoffs and winning games. I had an idea that would be cool. Give each player on a team a money % number. So #1 player ie Kobe #2 Gasol #3 Odem #4 Artest and then Kobe gets 30 % of the win money. Gasol gets 20% Odem 10% ARtest 8% #5 7% and everyone else gets 4% or something like that. This would give players a reason to want to play in games and win them. I would also deincentivise the super stars from wanting to group up as there egos wouldn't allow them to be the #2 guy on a team. I also feel they should forfiet there win money if they don't play in the game.
