@Left.A1 and @Loose

It's kinda hard who won so far and we really won't know until the full deal is released.

I'm happy it won't be a lock out

There doesn’t need to always be a “winner or loser” that’s the kind of framing that only makes sense for gossip n drama shows like espn first take … this was just a simple relatively peaceful negotiation of labor terms… no unnecessary squabbling for the sake of posturing no overly continuous side bars thru the media …just two sides amicably understanding the mutual value each brings to the table and each party receiving what they feel like are tangible concessions

I give credit to Silver for understanding how destructive labor stoppages are for a pro sports league as he’s now avoided two of them I believe unlike his predecessor… whatever he’s done to massage these team owners egos is working and that’s his job ..now we as fans don’t have to worry about losing games …on the players side being able to negotiate things like equity options is incredible this generation of players definitely moved the ball forward with that one

What could possibly go wrong with this bright idea

I have a question, let's say Zion Williamson signs a 3 year 75 million dollar promotional deal with DraftKings do the NBA get a chunk of the bread or is it all his?

 

[seemorecizzy]

that in season tournament shyt is embarrasing lol
its sad that the nba has to try these gimmicks and game eligibility tactics just to get hoopers..to fukking hoop lmao

Speaks to the level of compeitiveness in todays game. I don't no how we ended up here but weve been on a steady decline since kobe got his last ring.

Investing in betting companies, while being an active player, sounds like a terrible idea.

Do people think that players that are predisposed to bet on games and point shave or whatever nefarious activity people presume this new rule will enable aren’t already doing these things anyways

Or that doing a draftkings commercial means they can suddenly start using the app?
