    ^Same thing was said in '99. The owners buckled then to 53-47.

    At the end of the day the players will break because they will be broke while the owners will be fine as they were losing money anyway.
    The players can sue and a court order to cease and desist a lockout has an alarming effect. Also cities such as Memphis have begun deliberations to sue because this lockout can be viewed as a breach of contract with the cities because after all they are the ones stuck with the arenas.

    This isnt the pinkertons and a RR strike.

    doesnt hurt the owners when they can just rollover losses in their tax return hence they got other businesses on the side that might be makin money

    while the nba player is force to suck it up and accept the loss of income...

    If the owners are in as bad shape as Stern claims, they can't afford to lose many more games.

    According to him, they're all skid row, Oliver Twist orphans one step away from dire poverty.

    The players have been preparing for this for two years now. The owners will continue to have expenses to pay whether there is a season or not. The players will get their 53.
