Too bad, wanted the NBA to fold.

its a national, professional sports organization. how naive are you. this is not college sports where you can kick a team out of a bowl and people won't care. this is the nba, the most select league in all of sports. no sport has fewer players than the national basketball association. it's the highest level around

Got a text from one of my friends 10 minutes ago saying lock out was over.

Fukking with my emotions, not cool.

[Goat Milk]

something will be resolved soon. have patience. everyone knows that stern can afford to lose the nba season because that will be the end of him. i'm fully confident there will be a season.

Reporter trying to make a name for himself and trying to get attention, what a douche bag.

Live updates from the lockout:

4:40 P.M.
There's been a small buzz in the room after reports that Dave Checketts, former president of the Jazz and Knicks, went on a radio station to say that he's hearing a CBA deal has been reached. Every NBA journalist in the room reacted the same way: a chuckle and a roll of the eyes.

5:05 P.M.
The tweet about Checketts' radio remarks certainly set off a firestorm within the restaurant stakeout room. But multiple sources with knowledge of the negotiations have since denied the report.

Supposedly the deal is pretty close, they've said that before though. There is no way to confirm anything is done...They definitely are having a news conference tonight, deal or not, so we'll find out the truth then.....

It is true that they reported that, and so did a few other outlets. Some of these outlets have already put out apologies for reporting it, after finding out it was only a rumor.

Nothing but a garbage league full of gold chain wearing pot heads and criminals. The only good guys in this league come from Europe.

Need NBA to make money, the players can go fukkk themselves otherwise. They don't care about me either so its equal, 50/50.

[RonPaul2008]

ESPN tv just said there is not a deal.

What's wrong with wearing gold chains and consuming cannabis?

Can you name more than 1 player in NBA history that's one of the top players ever to play the game coming out of Europe? Dirk.

I didn't think so...

Europe is a joke. Why do you think their players always fall flat in the NBA with a few exceptions.

It's close

Rashard Lewis will be thrilled that Lebron's travel schedule will resume so that he can get back to banging Savannah.

Those who banter and use slurs like that are usually the first ones out of the closet. Congrats on your latent personality traits coming to the surface. You will make a proud rainbow coalation member.
