Rob Perez Idea for NBA players scratched within 48 hours of game
Posted by OU Guy on 1/16/26 at 9:14 pm
Its actually a great idea and would give some value back to fans.

@WorldWideWob
This is my executable strategy for the NBA to properly compensate fans who get burned by premium prices because the star(s) doesn't play:
The NBA already has the definition of a "star" in place (a player selected for an All-NBA team or an NBA All-Star Game in the past three seasons), they use it to assess player participation policy violations during instances of load management around nationally-televised games.
If a star's status is downgraded to OUT within 48 hours of the game being played, the home team provides a $ voucher to every fan who walks through the gate. This $ amount will vary based on the dynamically-priced market, be a certain % of the median ticket price, and is not equivalent to cash. It is a store credit for the fan to use on a future ticket purchase which has to be made through the team's primary ticketing platform only (no StubHub/TickPick/VividSeats etc.)
The reasoning for the 48 hour parameter: it is unnecessary for the league to provide financial compensation when a player like Nikola Jokic is out for multiple weeks because he's actually hurt AND it has been announced well in advance. This proposal is for rug-pulling situations only, when a player is downgraded suddenly due to injury or load management strategy. Once the 48 hours have passed, future games are no longer eligible for compensation as there is ample time to change plans/expectations/sell/transfer tickets. Only contests within the timeframe.
The reasoning for the varying $ compensation amount: single game tickets are dynamically-priced based on market demand, game date (major holiday showcase like Christmas Day drive premiums), and quality of opponent. Some vouchers will need to be more than others to resonate.
The reasoning for the compensation to be a store credit and not credit card refund: many tickets are purchased via secondary markets unaffiliated with the franchise, and not from the teams directly. The team does not have control over these particular listings, thus should not be liable for the full premium pricing manufactured by individual sellers. In addition: a store credit, obviously, has to be used in the store. This will motivate fans to purchase their future tickets from the team's primary market, as they are being compensated to do so. Direct ticket sales have an increased profit margin versus distributing through secondary partners, who require profit-sharing in each sale, and I believe this direct sale margin would make up for a majority of the voucher cost.
This isn't something completely outlandish or unprecedented, as there are already exchange programs in place -- but for merchandise.
For example: fans can occasionally swap old jerseys for new ones with the team directly (the Jazz did this recently! LINK While the franchise likely does not profit off of this, they provide a service to retain customer interest and/or satisfaction. Consider it CAC (Customer Acquisition Cost).
I would like to apply a similar concept, but for ticketing. If a star is ruled out of a game within 48 hours of tip, ticket-holders who pass through the gate are compensated for the premium price they paid with their money or time. It's a calculated gesture to get their business back after being disappointed, and would not be detrimental to the franchise's bottom line.

Oklahoma TE departures vs additions, size only:
IN:
6’5, 245
6’8, 269
6’5, 245
OUT:
6’4, 247
6’2, 233
6’5, 238
At a minimum, supersizing the room should transform both blocking and red zone opportunities.
Besides the first guy, look at the size of our TE room! And we have experience, depth and youth combined. What a complete transformation. Will help both our run and pass game.

TDS is everywhere. He will hurt his own country just to get back at Trump. We might need to build a wall on that border eventually as citizens flock to get away when too many jobs are lost.

I saw an interview with him and someone asked about that. He said his job is to report and the players are very bonded. And they joke around a lot. Said that was part of “their” story and he would never change anything they do because he feels its an important part of who they are and the story to be told.
Most reporters would never allow it and behind the scenes would have them stop. I have so much respect for Nick because he understands that it helps fans see a lighter side of the players thats rare in sports. Its what makes him such a good reporter.
