From Yahoo Sports' Adrian Wojnarowski:
"The NBA and players have reached an agreement on a deal, source says. The season will start on Dec. 25."
Can't wait.

At least now I won't have to hear my friends whine about there being no basketball. Only thing I like is the playoffs.
I'm hoping the Bulls can pick up another guy who can create his own shot somehow. I don't think they'll get the 1 seed..but I think the Eastern Finals will come down to the Bulls & Heat again. Once you get that far anything can happen.
Then again we still haven't even gone through free agency so who knows what the teams will even look like.

I really, really hope they beat out the Heat. I can't think of anyone I'd want to see win in the East other than the Bulls. Definitely OKC for the West.
I don't know if the Lakers will be the same without Phil Jackson, initially at least. He seemed like he was the spiritual leader of that team.
Not approved yet according to ESPN last I read. Also, I never watch NBA until after the NFL season is over...Even then I am not sure I can support the league anymore. What about those NBA guys playing overseas? DarkOfKnightI think they pretty much all have out clauses, that allow them to come back to the NBA when an agreement is reached. With the exception of a few players like Wilson Chandler, and Kenyon Martin who signed deals in China that last until March, with no out clauses.

Meaning mah Spurs :cool:
I am so happy there is going to be basketball at least. BRING THOSE PLAYERS BACK FROM OVERSEAS

Finally. If NBA 2K12 can fix the rosters well enough, I might buy it.LTomlinson21Yeah that was actually the only thing keeping me from really buying it: The lockout and no rookies. Maybe they should have gotten this deal done last week so that I could have bought NBA 2k12 on Black Friday! :evil:lol...

You are obviously bandwagoning the Rockets.
Because the Rockets were soooo good last year, right?I wish I understood your point... assuming you had one.[QUOTE="No_Hablo_Ingles"][QUOTE="Ngamer05"] Says the Eagles fan.JML897
You are obviously bandwagoning the Rockets.
The team that hasn't been in the playoffs in years and when they do get kicked out in the first round... over the Celtics, the team that plays in the state in which I was born and partially raised?Come on, did I really need a "/sarcasm" for that post?JML897Sorry :( I am terrible at picking up sarcasm...
Come on, did I really need a "/sarcasm" for that post?JML897LOL around half of me thought it was sarcasm... I guess I should have went with that. haha
Damn, the Sonics fan in me was hoping they would cancel the entire season.monkeytoes61The Sonics fan in me was hoping the Sonics could still be a team. But yes, I'm glad this is going through. Huzzah, huzzah.
[QUOTE="No_Hablo_Ingles"][QUOTE="Ngamer05"] Says the Eagles fan.JML897I wish I understood your point... assuming you had one.You are obviously bandwagoning the Rockets. No he bandwagons the Celtics, get your facts straight MR.!
Damn, the Sonics fan in me was hoping they would cancel the entire season.monkeytoes61As someone who was with the owners on this, I wanted that too. The owners should have just cancelled the entire season and went to court for a while instead of caving in like this. In the NFL the players caved into a bad deal, in the NBA the owners caved into a bad deal.

^^^^They will. NBA going hill. They don't do the salary cap like the NFL but don't do revenue sharing either like MLB. I see contraction in the near future. Master_LiveI think you might be getting too close to the reality of the situation.

He's fine in the regular season... it's the 'post season' he has problems with.[QUOTE="SilentSoprano"][QUOTE="Jagged3dge"]

What does your avatar say? I can't read it. Sorry to ask, but I am curious. Obviously it's something to do with Mike Vick and dogs.
^It's the Philadelphia Eagles trophy case. There's nothing but a can of Alpo in it. JML897... Thanks for explaining :(
