    C'mon you know better than that. That would be the rational thing to do. And these negotiations have been all but rational.

    UPDATE: After conferring with owners on the labor relations committee, commissioner David Stern was prepared to deliver a revised proposal to the union Thursday night based on the deal points negotiated over the past two days, a person with knowledge of the plans confirmed to CBSSports.com. The revised proposal, first reported by Yahoo Sports, was not the so-called "reset" proposal threatened if talks broke down, the person said.

    Excuse me for being out of the loop, but if and when proposes this new deal to the Union, will it be a voting process where the Union gives it to the 400+ players and if the majority vote for it, will it then get passed or do Hunter and Fisher look at it and just reject or approve of it on behalf of the players?

    Reports from @WojYahooNBA and @KBergCBS that Stern will present revised offer after conferring w/labor committee. Details not yet clear.

    New offer presumably aimed at addressing union concerns w/system. Question is, how far are owners moving and is it enough? OK, that's two Qs

    HowardBeckNYT Howard Beck
    Given the late date, the ultimatum threat made earlier in week, etc, I have to believe this will be NBA's last, best offer. We'll see.

    Hope? ownership source says revised offer will give players "meaningful stuff" while staying at 50/50 BRI. Called talks "complicated."

    Meeting wrapping up. News conferences expected to start in 10 minutes.

    Talks ended...NBPA will talk first..with revised proposal in hand to sleep on?

    Meeting has wrapped, union speaking first.

    HowardBeckNYT Howard Beck
    Meeting has wrapped. Players speaking first. Assuming they broke up so union can digest revised proposal.

    daldridgetnt David Aldridge
    Union first, then league. Certainly do not expect to hear of any breakthroughs tonight. Only question is whether they keep talking Friday.

    Would expect union leadership will study proposal overnight, confer with players and meet with NBA again on Friday. No confirmation though.

    After reviewing, Fisher says NBA's offer isn't enough "to try and entice us to finish this out tonight." Players will step back, confer.

    Dime Live seems to interpret it as they need to sell these current changes to players

    Fisher: We've worked at it for the as couple of days. Right now we have ... a revised proposal from the NBA. It does not meet us entirely.

    FisolaNYDN Frank Isola
    Derek Fisher: "right now we have a revised proposal. It doesn't meet us entirely on the system issues."

    KBergCBS Ken Berger
    Fisher: We've decided to end things for now, take a step back .... confer with our player reps and other players over the next few days.

    KBergCBS Ken Berger
    Fisher: We still would like to continue to negotiate and try to get a deal done but right now, it's not that time.

    SpearsNBAYahoo Marc J. Spears
    Fisher: Revised NBA deal doesn't meet on all system issues. Going to meet with player reps over next few days and then figure out next step

    daldridgetnt David Aldridge
    Union first. Fisher: Revised offer does not meet us all the way on system. Will stop talks for now. Will confer with players/committee.

    WojYahooNBA Adrian Wojnarowski
    After reviewing, Fisher says NBA's offer isn't enough "to try and entice us to finish this out tonight." Players will step back, confer.

    sheridanhoops Chris Sheridan
    D.Fisher said owners revised offer did not meet players' needs, so they walked away to reassess. Now question is whether Stern pulls offer

    KBergCBS Ken Berger
    Fisher: Not enough progress to get a deal done.

    KBergCBS Ken Berger
    Fisher: Don't know if they characterized it as their las, best offer.
