The energy of the NBA is much different than the NFL. Their players are starting to change loyalties to overseas markets.

Probably not. If they go through with decertification, and I think it just makes the situation worse if they do, then count them out for quite some time.

Can anyone say a March - July season?
If it's that short, I might actually pay attention. They already play way too many games for me.

I think they're gonna run it into the ground. I think the NBA players are tons more spoiled and self centered than the NFL. I think David Stern is getting really ticked off.

I think a lot of people would lose money if they canceled the season, and I'm not talking just about players and owners. If the season was canceled, it could be an opportunity to close down some franchises and consolidate them. There are too many NBA teams to make the league viable in my opinion.

Just cancel the season already ...

Halo 11-16-2011 12:52 PM

Look, there's a reasonable deal on the table. Call me whatever names possible but the players are spoiled brats. They work for the NBA. They want to own the whole thing.

Cancel the season. If they consolidate, I guess we'll lose the Hornets. I'm done with the NBA at this point anyways.
