The Official NBA Collective Bargaining Thread vol Phased in Hard Cap

^I believe its because the two sides are negotiating face to face. They are negotiating thru the mediator who is then going from side to side lobbying ideas back and forth. Makes the whole negotiation process like 8 times longer.

Still, 15 hours, going past 1:00 a.m. Eastern time, is a long time to put in to this process if absolutely no progress is being made.  I can't see things lasting this long if the sides are still way apart on all the big issues.

Oh no doubt I'm as hopeful as everyone, wouldn't be surprised if the meetings continue until tomorrow morning.

After this is resolved, Stern should step down. 3 labor issues under his reign. Time to go.

Howard Beck: Asked NBA PR man if he has anything for us. He laughed at me. I am sad. 1 minute ago


These writers and reporters camped out at the meetings are getting pretty hilarious with their tweets
