Point taken. The argument has degenerated. I will be more on topic.

It does now. As much as I hate it the NBA has ceased to have as much to do
with the game of basketball and has fallen headlong into the world of
corporate profits. Almost everything in basketball today has some underlying
economic result or import.
	The lockout is a result of the troubling reality. And that is how our
wrangling relates to professional basket. Although I wish it didn't.
