Would be nice to think both NBA union and owners at least reached agreement on Amar'e's use of apostrophes.

Once again, Stern's quote from yesterday: "if it's a very short meeting, that's bad. And if it's a very long meeting, that's not as bad."

We have reached the 2-hour mark at NBA lockout central, which I would say qualifies this as not a short meeting. Not long yet, but not short

I'm not putting much into Amar'e's take. Baron Davis' update on Saturday was that things were going well, then officials came out and said very little progress was made.Comment

Re: Lockout news October 4
Well considering half of us were thinking that things were going to go horribly wrong by now.... it technically is progress.

Obviously there's no deal because there would be a joint press conference, but nobody expected a deal to be struck today. But progress...Comment
