NBA Lockout Empty
PostSubject: NBA Lockout   NBA Lockout EmptyTue Oct 11, 2011 9:39 pm

Today the canceled the 1st 2 weeks of the season. I have a tough time siding with the players in this one. I was on the players side for the most part in the NFL lockout but in this 1 the NBA players make far to much with the gauranteed contracts and I heard a stat a few days ago that kinda surprised me, the NBA players make an average of 2 million dollars a contract more than any of the other 3 major sports. My question is are u guys even going to miss the NBA this season? Cause i dont think i will.

There will not be an NBA season

another way to put it is LeBron James will once again fail to win a title.

I feel sorry for people that make money off the NBA besides owners and players. Like Vendors, Ushers at the arenas and restaurant owners around the arenas.

I typically go into a dark depression when college footbal and basketball, and the NFL aren't on, but the NBA is kinda whatever to me. I like watching the playoff's and that's about it.

The worst NBDL team would squash the best college team. Food for thought.

Yeah from what I been hearing is the owners offered a 50-50 split which is a 7% drop from what the players were already getting. I see why the players are fighting it but they have to come down from what the experts have been saying. Sounds like the Players said they would go to 54% or some shit. Either way it wasnt enough.

They'll simulate this season through NBA 2k12 and when it says the Miami Heat win they will give LeBron the ring they so desperately want him to have.

Well from all the reports out there from everyone that isn't a current player, the players are being fucking greedy. Now the owners may be taking it a tad too far in the other direction but from all reports out there, the NBA players are just filling those pockets and don't feel it is their problem that they made out like bandits on the last deal.

Their is no other way to see this other than the players are greedy imo, they rejected 50/50 what more were the owners suppose to give? I'm super pissed at all the big name players.
