apparently the season is gone


Not yet. They've cancelled all games up to December 15. But if they don't get a deal done by February they'll cancel

Stephen A reknz he has been convinced there will be a deal done within 2weeks, probably a month after that the season will get under way...

Broussard however reknz its done and he worries they may not even get this sorted by the next season is due bcos of the ego involved ::)

Shortened season helps Dallas a lot

No season doesnt help anyone (especially the Kings)
just meant it helps all the older aging teams, no season helps the Kings  ;D

So who is playing Christmas Day?

Stern would not confirm those matches yesterday so yeah they may change

Heat eyeing off some additions... Dalembert with Florida ties sounds promising

Cicjose

Dalembert was linked to us last season as well

Caron Butler is interesting (good player how will he fit in Miami again?)

“We came together with nine new players with a big goal,” Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said earlier this month. “I think that’ll help us this season, the fact that we spent almost nine months together on that journey. And the journey didn’t end, it’s just beginning.”

:)

Trueâ€"it’s the lockout that’s ending.

Is season back on for real?!??!   :o

I saw some news reports but Stern, Fisher and Billy Hunter were all a bit tentative to say the least ...
