Season is definitely over
But I will again say that the bubble helped/helps the non faces/ superstars of the nba voice their opinion x reach more people
If it wasn’t for the bubble I wouldn’t have heard George Hill or Webber say what they said
The shut will send a message though, once you fuck with the higher ups money is when they’ll listen

And they typically find a way regardless of the circumstances.

By Not Go To PostMaybe the coolest guy on the planet
Been a fan of Brown since draft night when they said he didn't sign an agent cause he knew he'd be a top 3 pick
So if the Lakers boycott the season...do the Blazers advance?

If Melo gets a chip, is there an asterisk involved?

I was on the internet too young and it's been too damn long. I'm talking like early 90s bullshit too.

Like I said, you're 42
God I remember the shitshows of Gamefaqs and SomethingAwful. I hate this. I need to shut my brain back off.
I was a mod on IGN and got myself (by request) banned before Halo 2 because of rampant (some legit, some very non-legit) spoilers. That's just how it is in the internet forum era for us delicate flowers.
By Pac-12 Go To PostFender, I am embarrassed on your behalf.
Life is really just various decades of looking back and shaking your head at previous decades.

I'll be shocked if they cancel the playoffs. I fully expect some big speech, big donation, and choir singing in 2 weeks or less.

Tbis morning sports talk acting like this was going to be a thing until action happened and that billionaires can make legislative change. Hours later I see this tweet.
And really, they better be ready to sit out until 2022 if they want and shot at legislative action and even then it’s a pipe dream IMo. Congress sucks ass

Inside the hectic hours around a historic NBA boycott
Portland Trail Blazers guard CJ McCollum challenged players who wanted to end the season not to forfeit this platform by just quietly returning to their homes.
Boston Celtics swingman Jaylen Brown asked his colleagues, "Are you going home to work? Or are you going home to be on the front lines?" Iguodala said that if they stop the season, the players should be on the front lines of Kentucky or Wisconsin. Otherwise, what was the point?
Players and teams discussed voting on whether to continue. Clippers guard Patrick Beverley said he thought the coaches should leave the room so players could talk and vote among themselves.At least CJ and Jaylen are asking the questions we'd be asking.
"Some of you don't want to play, but you don't want to say it in front of the coaches," Beverley said, according to sources.
Rivers agreed and led the coaches out of the room.
But it didn't result in clarity. Many players said they wanted to continue playing, including the Bucks, sources said. Many did not. Players on the Lakers and Clippers voted not to continue the season, and several – including James – left the meeting early.
It was not seen as a formal vote. Just a moment of reckoning, after a day no one will soon forget.
"If we stop playing today," one front-office executive asked his players on Wednesday, "is that changing anything in the world? Will everyone else in the world just move on, and then will we lose our platforms?"
Another executive said, "The question we asked our players: What do you hope to accomplish by not playing the games? The answers were very different. I think that's something everyone is still formulating for themselves. What's the endgame here, and does not playing accomplish it?"

It’s easy for well off super stars to strike. It’s not for the plebs. This is why the NFL sucks
And striking with no clear goal is dumb AF, which is why we’re now hearing season is likely back on and why minor concessions are being extracted.
I think they would’ve left if the playoffs were about to start
Most likely within 2-3 weeks you’ll see 5-7 teams leave so that’s why they’ll stay
They definitely should use every interview x post game interview to spread their messages

Don’t they need to finish the season to avoid having to do a new CBa?
