I found this article on nba.com interesting. It's probably a few days old by now, but whatever...

NBPA in position to go on offensive at labor meeting | NBA.com

The key point for me was that the players got the escrow amount back which indicates that they got less of the BRI than they were supposed to get under the old CBA. Based on the trend of the NBA, one would think that profits would continue to grow with this past season being like it was and those storylines continuing. As it is, the whole court action thing by Stern means that all of this means nothing to him.

I don't particularly care who wins because there's always going to be unhappiness over this stuff anyway, but I do know that we're going to lose one way or another. And that sucks.

It's just come widely accepted that there's no 2011-2012 season and it will return 2012-2013. Why not just agree to whatever you're gonna agree to in a year?

Watching game 2 of the 1996 NBA Finals. Jordan/Pip combined to score 50 points in the win. Awesome game and great to remember. :bulls:
