Citing the league's extreme and inflexible position, union head Billy Hunter said Monday that a lockout is very likely.

 

"I’d be 99 percent sure as of today that there will be a lockout," said Hunter. "I’ve said, 'Save your money, because in all probability there’s going to be a lockout.'"

 

Hunter said the gap between the league and players is wide and stated that the union will not move from its current position.

 

The next bargaining session has not been scheduled but the two sides have discussed meeting in December.

As long as individual players are capable of making 1/3 of the salary cap, there will be issues. Players will cave first, they have more to lose. It is just like the NHL all over again. Except the NBA has something to build off, the NHL on the other hand was in shambles.
