The funny thing is, the players *think* they have all this leverage, but they really don't.

Truth be told, the NBA overall isn't profitable. Too many teams lose money....

The 76ers can't survive in this town right now with the phillies, Flyers, and Eagles all being winning franchises.

The NBA is overrated anyhow!

With no year of LeButthead playing, the better he'll NEVER win a ring!

I'm upset about this because i love the NBA. I blame the players for this lockout with their money hungry selfish asses. They ought to be happy with the salaries they're getting because if they didn't play basketball, they couldn't get a job because they're uneducated and ignorant. I know the fans are mad at the players about this. Cleveland Cavs is another team that's losing money because they're gonna be sorry for a long time hahahahahaha. I wish Lebron would've stayed with Cleveland but i guess he got frustrated because he couldn't win championships with them. He needs to understand that getting a championship is hard and there's lots of great players before him that never got a championship.

Heard about this yesterday, and hoped that the spirit of greed would leave their hearts, and this would be resolved. Whatever. Didn't think it was possible, but i lost even more respect for many of the players. NBA Cares?? Ya'll sure got a funny way of showing it. i'm sure some of you care, but many obviously don't. if they did, they'd realize that most families already can't afford ticket prices, get your wish and nobody will be able to enjoy games with their family. Thanks for caring NBA.

isiahthomas · 10-29-2011, 02:02 PM

I agree with you. NBA players are selfish and money hungry. They don't give a damn about the fans because whether they realize it or not, the fans are the reason why they're wealthy.

Exactly!! And sadly, this can be said for athletes in most sports today. The whole NBA Cares campaign is mostly a facade to try and cover up most of the players greed. It's disgraceful IMO.

isiahthomas · 10-29-2011, 02:22 PM

You're right about the NBA Cares campaign being a joke. They care alright about poor people hahahahahahahahahahaha. All they care about is making their pockets fat with money and buying nice cars, nice houses, jewelry, nice clothes, nice shoes, spending money on hot women hahahahahahahahaha.

I survived in 1998-99 with a short NBA season so I guess I can do it in 2011
