Message: [QUOTE="Knicks411, post: 75135, member: 767"] Which is of course the also true for the owners, regardless of how the BRI is divided up. Always seems to be forgotten. Lebron didn't leave Cleveland because he could get more money. He actually took less money. The owners are a lot less interested in competitive balance than they are in saving money. Which is their prerogative, i guess. We'll see what the courts say. I don't think they were anywhere close to bargaining in good faith, especially if you believe that there were some owners who thought the most recent deal on the table was too much to give to the players. The players gave up $3 billion over 10 years, and that still wasn't enough. But Stern has the gall to say the agents were greedy? [/QUOTE]
