As long as the coach lists the player as active, there would be no problem, right? Let's say Steph Curry wanted to buy a new car before the game. Could he miss the 1st half and then play in the 2nd?

I don't believe so. I think they take tabs before the game starts.

And why the hell would he not be able to do this after the game, or earlier enough that he won't be late??

Don't know if the rules have changed since then, but back in 96 Shaq arrived mid-game and was allowed to play.

Yea.

After being away from the team for about a week after he found out his less than 1 year old daughter had cancer behind her eye, Derek Fisher returned. He flew in from New York where his daughter had surgery that very morning, got a police escort to the arena, put on his uniform, and without warming up at all, Fisher entered the game.

Yes. I have heard a story where a player got lost/stuck in traffic and came to the game late.
