NBA halt bottom line is the end of December

According to the NBA's official website reported that the expert David Aldridge talk about collective bargaining, revealed the ten factors affecting the halt, one of which seems to be particularly crucial--President David Stern did not want to lose the Christmas wars, subtext halt at most would end before Christmas!

　　First of all, Aldridge think the real difference in reducing both employers, secondly if labor-management negotiations dragged by November, the season did have the potential to significantly shrink and, finally, fans don't care about the so-called labor-management negotiations who could win, I hope that as early as possible, if the Union halt, fans will decline in interest. So the combination of these, come to the conclusion that halt losses for both employers and employees would be a huge loss, halt, if any, will not be too long, Aldridge is the evidence of Stern didn't want to lose the Christmas wars.

　　Several League Insider hears the stern for the halt of ideas, President, did not wish to halt had been lasted until Christmas, because the day's income is substantial. On Christmas day, such as ESPN Sports, ABC and NBA official TV will broadcast NBA Christmas war throughout the day, this time with their opponents almost competitive ratings did not. Because the baseball season had ended, and most college football games have come to an end, only the NFL will arrange a game, the NBA become the darling of a great deal of attention.

　　So Stern may try to solve the dispute before Christmas, and the period of preparation before NBA regular season should at least 2-3 week, so probably no later than at the end of November, labor-management negotiations must end. Aldridge also revealed that the second week of November is the players receive a salary for the first time the day, the bosses may look at the reaction of the players will wait until that time. Might expect the players are divided views within the Union, because not all the players to loss of salary. So-called uphold the requirements of 50% fenzhang by then boss is not difficult to achieve. That is, before the Halloween was probably Stern expected deadline for agreement.

　　If as expected the stern, the NBA season will shrink by up to 70 per cent to 65.

　　Hardliners in the last of the good news is that the players Union have bowed: hard-liners, mostly small-market teams, they held their ground, and resolutely perform a hard salary cap system, on the surface was unwilling to compromise, in fact, they want from the big market teams---like the Lakers, Nick---where a piece. So for the stern, he to work between owners and players on the one hand, on the other hand, also to coordinate differences between boss, this is the United States media broke, Stern was actually attacked front causes.

　　But on to the present juncture, hardliners clearly have begun loosening, by participating in the negotiation of 10 representatives of the boss, Michaele.Heisley, t.h.suffert have attitudes are particularly strong, they insist not to back down, but by this time, they have also, at present but in search of the balance. As regards the bass, Allison and them looking forward to new season begins as soon as possible, so you can imagine is that scene in the negotiations, they will never too with the employees care about, but rather to promote smooth progress of the negotiations. From this sense, the talks made some progress, meaning great, because when hardliners select compromises, many things will become more successful.
