Someone educate me on how an NBA team fields a full roster in situations like tonight. With Shumpert out Cleveland is down to 8 players. If they declare the 4 inactive by a certain time prior to the game, they can fill (tonight's) roster with guys out of the D-league or otherwise?

Coach Lue is going to lace them up.

I don't think they go as far as actually declaring three guys inactive, do they? Maybe I haven't noticed. Can't they just "rest" in their unies, just in case?
And what's Tristan Thompson, chopped liver? No rest for the weary.

The Truth Is Out There
Numbers don't lie when your God sits, Tip.
Cavs 8 or 9-deep tonight with zero playmakers.

I'm not disputing the play or the numbers, was wondering out loud about what Frank asked. When all three sat in Memphis, I don't think any of them even traveled. But if they're in OKC, the resting trio are presumably available in case of emergency, right?

My bad, misunderstood what you were saying.
They're all in OKC.
8 players available is the league minimum allowed, so rarely do you see D-league call-ups.
Teams basically waiving the white flag in these instances and taking the L.
Night in a haunted hotel and big minutes last night. These soft coddled folk ain't playing no matter what, emergency or otherwise.

Hope for the OKC backers that they are indeed out, and that "probably" turns to "definitely". Smells a little weird.

As of right now, everybody's playing for the Cavaliers, Tyronn Lue says.

I'll take the blame.
