You are paid to play. He didn't play. Ergo he shouldn't be paid.

there are plenty of situations where guys get paid for not playing. most of them injury related, but still.

Doc Rivers just left his coaching job for a couple days to attend his dad's funeral. should the Celtics not pay him b/c he missed practice and the Toronto game?

I think that not paying him for however much time he missed is pretty reasonable.

I think it's more reasonable to treat the guy as a human being and cut him some slack b/c his Dad died.
