Will The Lockout End Tomorrow?

What's everyone's gut feeling?

All 30 NBPA team representatives will meet today in New York. They have two options: accept NBA's offer or decertify. They'll vote on it.

my gut feeling is no.

[pegasus]

My guy feeling says yes, but I secretly want a "no", just to see what happens next.

[iDunk]

Yes, the announcement will come at 12:00 PM

Stephen A. put it best: For the fans, this is a potential doomsday.

[Kurosawa0]

The soap opera continues... unfortunately.

[Rnbizzle]

I would love it so much, but my gut feeling says no.

[NuggetsFan]

What time will we know if it's over or not?

[JohnnySic]

I hope so but I just doubt it.

I think they will say yes. It doesnt make sense for the average player to push this further, especially as the owners want to give them a lesser offer already. Larry Coon had a post several weeks ago about how the different % of BRI is reflected in real dollars and it basically concluded that the difference between 53% and 50% over the entire 6-7 years of the CBA would be lost to the players in current income by january.

Today's meeting will be very interesting. It sounds like both sides have supporters, so there will be plenty of debating this afternoon.

I agree. I think they will say yes but I really really hope that the deal isn't as bad as they are making it out to be. I would fully support them losing a season if it means a much better deal for the younger generation. Thing is, it's not looking like waiting any longer will produce a better deal.

[Rooster]

Hopefully yes but I think they gonna drag this till after Christmas. That's the time when both of the sides will come to their senses. They will soon realize that sometimes it's better to give then receive. Greedy mofos.

[Clutch]

My gut says YES.
Lockout will end tomorrow.

Usually I'm pessimistic but I have a good feeling about this one.
