Once union leadership saw that players didn't want this deal, would decertify, they climbed on board the dissolving of union.
Well, .
Is it true all the contracts are gone now, since they have clauses that the player needs to be in a Union? I thought I saw a video yesterday talking about that, in the ballpark of 4billion
Well, the NBA will have to argue that in court in front of a judge. And the judge has to agree. It really gets hairy now, both sides.
Plus players ain't getting checks as it is, so...

This was the path agents pleaded Hunter to take in July, when it was clear the NBA would never agree to a deal the players would accept.
So if we do have a season next year it will be a insane free market?
At least it means that top NBA players waiting to see if the lockout lasts will now go in Euroleague
KD, Kobe, Dirk etc... It will be fun to watch euroleague this year
ing ridiculous. to be honest, who gives a about the "unfair" deal the players are getting, right now, there is about to be no season. I don't give a rat's ass about the players, I don't know them personally, and their philanthropic work isn't enough for me to care, I don't give a rats ass about the owners, because they're obviously fat aristocratic wads who don't know when to fold.
Nothing will come from taking it to the courts. Let's see the NBA get replacement players. Death to the rich.

Union hires famed attorney David Boies to help file an rust suit against the NBA. Like the NFLPA, union will now become trade association

Derek Fisher: a lot of individual players have a lot at stake...but it was important to get a deal for players that follow.

Hunter: lawsuit likely filed in next 48 hours. Seeking summary judgment, not injunction

Hunter: we have to live with the jurisdiction

Players who will be plaintiffs in lawsuit have not been chosen.

Hunter: it was a system in which we couldn't function

For sports fans who aren't familiar...David Boies argued on behalf of VP Al Gore in 2000 presidential election fight...

Boies also argued w/former solicitor general Ted Olsen on behalf of plaintiffs in California suing to overturn Prop. 8 anti gay rights law

Kevin Durant could sign with overseas team next week if NBA lockout continues. From @SpearsNBAYahoo: yhoo.it/rYfFwu
I just want to hear what Stern/Silver have to say now...
& that was by design to pull the black man's pants down. It's ins utionalized racist code.
So, are all contracts null and void? I hope not. I don't want to hear ddduuuuhhhhh let's go get Kobe, Lebron, Durant, etc. Most of the idiots on here want the Spurs to after those guys even when they are under contract.

If for no other reason:::

LOL LIke those guys were worried about the players that will be coming into the league after them. Boochit.
But, Hunter had to see it. He did the right thing.
@WojYahooNBA
When Stern comes out on his TV networks soon, expect him to strongly threaten the voiding of players contracts.

We're descending into $400/hr land, but simply: disclaimer immediately ends union, allows immediate filing of an rust suit...
WojYahooNBA Adrian Wojnarowski
Players had already given up all the money -- $3 billion -- and the fight left was largely over freedom of movement.
Yep, I believe all contracts are null and void. There's two things than can play out, one: Most of the players return to their teams. Two: The NBA will be in complete disarray, with three teams just stacked with super stars, and every other team with role players.
Can't wait.
^^^ They're not until a judge says so. As of right now, they're not.
Been nothing else since day one. Media coming in late the last 72 hours crunching numbers to re the truth was unconscionable.
The good news is things will move forward now. It might take time, but since the union was not going to take what the owners were offering and the owners were adamant not to change their conditions, further negotiations was a waste of time. The "disclaimer of interest" was another good move to accelerate proceedings. I didn't think Hunter had it in him, tbh.
