Tentative NBA deal reached

NEW YORK -- NBA owners and players reached a tentative agreement early Saturday to end the 149-day lockout.

 

After a secret meeting earlier this week, the sides met for more than 15 hours Friday, working to try to save the season. This handshake deal, however, still must be ratified by both owners and players.

 

"We've reached a tentative understanding that is subject to a variety of approvals and very complex machinations, but we're optimistic that will all come to pass and that the NBA season will begin Dec. 25," NBA commissioner David Stern said.

 

The league plans a 66-game season and aims to open camps Dec. 9.

Inb4 Champ Kind.

 

The owners and players still need to vote, and the NBAPA still needs to recertify before a deal can be signed, so dont get your hopes up YET.

Lechoke shut down Debrick.

 

That's why the Mavericks won right?

The only good player on the Heat is Dwayne Wade. Everyone else is an overpayed clown.

Not saying that the Bulls are any better, but they are my home team, so that is why I took offense to your little LeBron joke.

Because our team is driven by Drose. He only carried our team throughout the whole Regular season with a few breakout performances here and there by Joakim Noah and Luol Deng. By the time we got to the Playoffs, Drose was getting tired, maybe in a few years he will have the strength to carry the whole city to a ring, but for 3-4 years in the league, it was too soon.

D-Rose has to develop a better jump shot. You can only drive to the rim so much because the better teams in the league can shut you down.

Not to mention Carlos Boozer has been garbage for the Bulls...

DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON BOOZER, HOLY BALLS.

But this is all true, hopefully over the break he worked a bit on his jump shots.
