Alright here we go. You got a bunch of uneducated, cant balance their own budget, immature, men fighting it out over men who made their millions in BUSINESS. How the hell do you think you are going to win. They lose money every year to put a team on the court. Right now the owners are like oh we dont have to pay you guys? Oh ok. so we arent losing any money right? oh ok Players how much are you losing? A shitload. You arent getting paychecks. They should have taken the 51/49 split when it was offered. The players wanted 52/48 owners wanted 50/50. Is that not meeting in the fucking middle?

Seriously you have guys like

lebron never went to college

durant one year

garnett never went

etc etc etc

going head to head with billionaires in business. You dumb sonsabitches should of taken that offer because right now the owners dont care if you step foot on the court. Stop complaining about how much you arent making and learn how to balance a checkbook. You give me one of those greedy bastards signing bonuses and I'd never work another day in my life.

i actully think the owners are in more money trouble then players. or atleast the top tier players. lebron makes so much more then the heat owner. what he makes like 50 mill a year prob more after salary/jerseys etc. but you are right they should have taken the 50/50 51/49 when it first came to light. im more pissed that fisher isnt looking out for all the lesser known players. hes there to help everyone, not make kobe more then hes worth. but then again thats MO and i dont truly understand a lot of the smaller things this lockout is about.

remember. You are looking at endorsements and what not. Even if the owners dont have a season they have all the other shit they make money with. the stuff that got them the money to buy that team. What does lebron get when you take away basketball? well you lose the endorsements. and the money and well he has no college education so if he didnt have basketball where would he be? None of hte guys that are representing the players ever have to worry about where the money is coming from. So in a way. They are fucking everyone who doesnt make millions. I dont want to hear it from anyone when the yearly minimum is 250k a year though

[OrionStang]

Players get a fucking salary. They shouldn't see a dime of the revenue they're bitching about. It's simply greed, plain and simple. Should bring in some replacement players at 60k a year and tell these cocky fucks to kick rocks, for good.

I could give a fuck less about what they are making as long as my team is winning haha (bulls and heat). But I really havent paid much attention to the NBA ever since #23 retired. Now those were the days. Im way more of an NFL (Bears) and college football (Miami Hurricanes) fan. Football has definitely surpassed baseball as the true american past time. Sorry, I had to rep my teams in the process of that paragraph lol.

I agree the NBA has gotten soft. When have you seen someone get shit on like patrick ewing used to? or meet people at the rim like mutumbo.

you dont see this anymore

I miss basketball. It's what I watch Tuesday through Saturday when football isn't on. Or when the raiders aren't playing, at least the warriors are. Once football is over, its gonna be quite the off season, since basketball won't be on.
