![]() If Stern had any kahunas, he'd allow the owners to hire scrubs to play out the 2011-12 season making a maximum of league minimum only. Instead of being paid an exuberant lifestyle, even if you stink ass.

![]() oh. I was asking because i really don't know. I don't follow closely. Players union reps sometimes are smart dudes and are involved in the discussions.
I think they both wanna have something done.... I just think the players don't wanna give, and sadly for them, they are gonna have to give. Hell, if the league folded, the owners write it off.... the players..... well.... there's always rucker park. |

The players will lose, especially when the majority of them actually will feel the financial pinch sooner than most owners. |

![]() Well it isn't about winning or losing. It's about getting a deal that they feel is fair.
in the end they are all happy anyhow.... this is why these lock outs are frustrating for fans. |

![]() meh... i hear ya.
In all reality, it's a dog and pony show with an already forecasted end game. The NBA is almost identical to the NHL, and the cyclical nature of what they need to do is pretty much there to see. Hell.... remember the hardline the owners took in the NHL lockout.... 45Million hard cap.... Ya its back up to around 60 million already. Players need to look at this and relax |

![]() Chris Broussard hates the Blazers. He must've lost a lotta money on us in a bet or something. Dude refuses to say anything, at all about Portland, except when his coveted classless wannabe thug life Ron Artest lovin' Lakers beat the Blazers.
Derek Fischer and David stern are the same entity, and since the Los Angeles Sterns probably aren't going to make it out of the second round, it's not a bad situation to miss the entire year. Dwight Howard becomes a free agent, and Blake Griffin playing with the Laker's "B" team will only be 1 year away from being promoted, if the entire 2012 season is missed. |
