Lockout this year/next year?

[nylexbandit]

There's been talk for a while that a lockout is looming in the NBA. Today I saw this http://www.nba.com/2010/news/07/14/hunter.cba.ap/index.html?ls=iref:nbahpt2

Obviously a lot of it is pre CBA posturing by both sides, but do you guys think another lockout is coming soon?

It can't happen this year.

It can't happen this year.

Yeah realised that before (after posting the thread) when googling around. Idiot mate at work was adamant that there was going to be a lockout this year

Has this ever happened in the Aussie sports or just over there in the States? There was the NHL one a few years ago, NBA one a decade ago and NFL is rumoured to be having one in 2011. A load of bullshit and not fair on the fans.

I hope it doesn't happen but alot of people in the nba seem to think it will bullshit if it does

Anyways if Danny Ainge's actions are anything to go by the lockout will be in the 2010/11 season.

He's been basically only signing players up to two year contracts with this in mind so it's been reported.
