NBA Lockout and Collective Bargaining Agreement Discussion

Re: NBA Lockout and Collective Bargaining Agreement Discussion

When 2016 gets here, we'll deal with that issue but until then I am not trying to be talking about who has more leverage unless we're talking about players battling in the paint on the court lol.

Well, this is the CBA thread, so I'd thought I mention the possibility of another lockout/strike in the future.

I would be shocked if one side or the other didn't opt out after the 6th year.

[WTF]

Re: NBA Lockout and Collective Bargaining Agreement Discussion

If smart, the owners would have a clause in there that states that the players can't "strike" or proceed w/ a lockout until after the 6 years in their entirety are up. Which means no more.. brace for it... Leverage for the players.

There will be a new television deal in 2016 and its expected the league will make a lot more money then. The players would be dumb if they don't opt out at the 6 yr mark.

Folks, stop looking at this like its a 10 yr deal. Its not. Its a 6 yr deal.

Have to agree. 6 years, one side (probably both) will be ready to kick up the dust and such again.

And I get that too.

But after spending the last year talking about this lockout we just had, debating who had what, wasting our time with that....you think we wanna start talking about something that 5-6 years away from the possibility(which is what it is at this point)of this happening? Hellllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll no

I'll be glad when next Friday rolls around and we don't have to see this thread again LOL. Like King said, the words "lockout, leverage, BRI, percentages, discussions, union" need to be banned from this forum until then

Hopefully they get the heck away from ABC

I hear you on that one. I myself don't want to see ANY situation where the NBA misses games. Players, owners, the league in general. They all need to get their heads out of their asses and realize that there is enough money to go around for everybody. You play it right, everybody will get to eat.

I'm with you on this thread. Once they sign the deal on Friday, I suggest this thread be closed and thrown away.

Unfortunately, since Disney owns ABC they'll have the most money to offer. And since ABC doesn't have the NFL and Monday Night Football, they'll have the cash to spend on the NBA. So unless ABC gets back the NFL, expect them to have the NBA on the next TV deal.

Treat it like we did Bin Laden's body when we caught him LOL.

Delete this **** and throw in the deepest parts of the E-Ocean never to be seen again.

Re: NBA Lockout and Collective Bargaining Agreement Discussion

Starting Monday:

Marc Stein tweets that as of 10 a.m. Monday, GM's can contact free agents about contracts but cannot conclude oral or written agreements. Similarly, coaches and players will be able to have contact at practice facilities come Monday but coaches still can’t oversee on-court workouts until camp opens, which is still Friday.
