long story short, players are being greedy, owners are being bullish, no one is giving in.

The process completely broke down today. Really not looking good for a 2011/12 season. The union is disbanding and taking the matter to court.

I read about that yesterday. Truth be told though, CP3 is the best point guard in the NBA. I think any team would put their players on the chopping block for CP3. I doubt this will happen though.

Best point guard in the league? What about the MVP?

I’d take CP3. Best ‘pure’ point guard. Derrick Rose is a scorer first.
