    I'm just pissed that why this has to wait till Monday or Tuesday? None of these player reps have Skype or can afford plane tickets?

    They certainly don't have anything better to do.

    I hear hunter saying 'Not the best offer in the world.'

    They aren't going to get that.

    Waiting until Monday to gather player reps allows super agents a full weekend to whip up a tornado of dissent. Dangerous time. #NBA

    Agreed. As much as the players talk about RT @BummiNAnderson: As a fan I'm highly mad! Waiting til Mon or Tues 2 present 2 reps is crazy!

    I'm w/tweeps who want a season. But if we don't because players didn't want to concede value of FA for next generation, kudos to them.

    I honestly think it depends on how Derek sells it to them. RT @LakersLADynasty: Do they accept or reject?

    After Tuesday's player rep meeting, a player told me the room was very divided. This won't be a landslide either way. Watch for campaigning.

    Danny Green who played with the Spurs this past season, and was drafted by the Cavs a few years ago.

    Ha, ahhh "gotta love" all this. I'm still not optimistic. I guess I wont be optimistic until I see a deal actually done. Seemingly ssdd/w.

    Not that he's wrong, but I find this pretty humorous coming from a guy who will never make more than the league minimum in his career.

    That is, unless the league minimum is being substantially reduced.

    So according to Larry Coon, Stern needs 16 votes to pass this "bill".

    There's gonna be alot of campaigning going on this weekend both from players and agents to either accept or reject this deal.

    Hope Lowry is one of them that accepts this deal.

    He young and has potential. Give him Chuck Hayes' spot.

    Players only leverage is that NBA wants to play on Christmas...badly. Maybe they'll roll the dice, reject deal and get NBA back negotiating

    Source says league conceded on sign-and-trades for taxpayers. That's a big one for the union to have.

    NBA proposal not #Knicks-friendly: no sign-n-trade, no full MLE for taxpaying team. If max out w/ CP3 via free agency, ur locked
