Despite the many negotiations, the NBA is still in a lockout. Because no agreement could be reached, Commissioner David Stern was sorry and sad to report that the first two weeks of the season are cancelled. Below is a link to the article from nba.com. What are your thoughts on this?

Update: With the NBA still in a lockout, all games for the month of November have been cancelled. I can't decipher the tech speak behind this, so if anyone can explain what is going on I'd appreciate it --even though I am kind of enjoying this lockout.

My thoughts are that no one cares.  NBA may very well disappear and no one would notice.  NHL hockey must be licking its chops at the newly-found market accessability.  Normal people can't connect with basketball players anymore and I think most won't notice it's gone.

I certainly won't.

I won't miss it either.

I stopped enjoying watching a bunch of over payed players bump into each other a bunch for a couple hours. I'd rather watch college basketball instead.... although that would pretty much die if the NBA dies.

warmaker : yeah, I'm sure the NHL is secretly very happy that the NBA is off right now. Even if it's just temporary.... if it lasts through the end of baseball and football seasons then they will possibly pick up some market share.

I wouldn't miss it. I don't watch sports, if I wanna get involved I just play them myself. Plus if I did watch it wouldn't be basketball. Just me though.

Really? I'm the only one that's missing basketball? I don't care if they're overpaid, we'd all like to be as good at what we love and be paid accordingly. I just enjoy the sport. I need something to do when baseball's not happening - in the Major League sense. Hot stove can only be so hot in the winter.

NotJon : College hoops doesn't do it for you?  Personally, I get up for Georgetown at Syracuse, or Michigan State at Wisconsin, or Duke at Maryland.  That's more entertaining than the NBA if you ask me.

warmaker : Eh, it's hard to get into for me. The players change too often and there's too much disparity between teams. Besides, I tend to follow more for the individual players than the teams.

Sigh...

Looks like a boring baseball offseason =/

Without the NBA I have no real alternative.

warmaker :

College Hoops isn't really all that interesting to me either. I think it's kind of mediocre to be completely honest. They could kick my ass, but they aren't professionals by any means.

legacyme3 : There is still NFL out there, that will keep you entertained until February. Or Try.

As for the lockout...I don't miss it, I don't see them making up any time soon yet.
