I have been watching nba basketball my whole life. I know the owners are greedy, I know the players are greedy. They shouldn't be judged for greed because money is the basis of their relationship. This is America and in America money is king. Money spurs athletic achievement in America. I was angry about the first lockout but I am glad this one is happening. I am glad because of one demand being made by the owners. This demand is the HARD CAP. This will revolutionize the nba game. It will force coaches to coach and players to learn how to maximize their abilities. The NFL is the best professional sports league by far. I believe it is the best for 2 reasons.

What 3rd place team cries with almost 20 games left in the season boasting the most talented trio in the league? They are clearly mentally soft. In real life I'm sure they are great relatives friends and fathers. In the nba they are just as arrogant as they are unsure of themselves. If they were number one in the East they would laugh at this 4 game skid. They are afraid of being the biggest bust in nba history (if they fail to win a championship as a group). I know they can win a championship, but this may have not been the best way to do it. They have a huge window, but their mentality may shatter it sooner than later.
