I'm not fully siding with the owners because some of them are sneaky snakes, but I'm with the Commish on this, it's no way to run a business continuing down this same path, basically all the minor market teams (20+ teams) are losing money and are projected to continue to lose money until what, bankruptcy or until the american economy finds it's legs, for real ?
come on now, as an employee (NBA player) would you rather get paid a fair wage (which is still something ridiculous to normal standards) and still have a job that you love to do, or the alternative....
this video clip right here about some of the worst free agent signings in history shows how grossly overpaid some of these players are, mostly the stars not even necessarily superstars, i mean you can't dispute this is the reason the lockout is here.... did these professional ball players really think they were fucking immune to shitty economic situation around them, dudes is still expecting to get paid pre economy-collapse type of money, get real fags
