More games cancelled

Last week the NBA Commissioner David Stern cancelled two more weeks of NBA games.  With no end to the negotiations in sight the commissioner had no choice but to cancel the games.  In my opinion I think that there will be a decision met very soon.  The players originally plan was to negotiate no lower than a 52% - 48% split in revenue, but the owners want a even 50/50 split.  With today being the 125th day of the lockout the players are not getting paid it is going to become difficult for the players not to crack.  While the top tier players making max contracts may be able to wait out the lockout, the smaller contract players need to get paid.  I foresee the NBA season starting pretty soon.
