Might as well cancel this season.  I wont watch anything not Hawks involved anyway.

They'll find a way to get to 70 regular season games to avoid having to refund TV money.  They might mess around and do free throw contests in separate arena's and count them in the standings if they have to.

You won't be watching the NBA finals? Sure you won't.

No if it involves big market teams I won't.  If it is a Milwaukee I would.  I just dislike the blue breds like LA, Boston etc.

That wont go over well with alot of players I would think.

Having memories of LaPhonso Ellis drinking a Mai Tai at poolside and crying poverty right now. But do agree, this will not go over so well.

They have played 75% of the season, so unless they cancel the playoffs, a 50% pay cut seems extreme.

Nearly 82% I agree that’s high.

The league already holds back 10% in escrow so that's an additiinal 15%.
