ESPN - "We want to play basketball," NBA commissioner David Stern said.
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.
Stern
said it was "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."
Finally something positive to talk about on the NBA front. Honestly won't even realize the difference in a 66 game season. Really don't even need any more games than that.
