Built Ford Tough Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 The NBA, facing the possibility of a work stoppage, has canceled this year's Las Vegas summer league and will not run its annual college internship program, the New York Daily News reported, citing league sources. The league is also not sending any teams to Europe for training camp and has not scheduled any preseason games there, according to the report. The collective bargaining agreement between the NBA and the players union expires June 30 and there have not been formal talks between the two sides in months. The summer league usually starts in July, while the internship program, at the league offices in New York and the league's entertainment division in Secaucus, N.J., lasts 10 weeks, according to the report. http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=6344031&campaign=rss&source=twitter&ex_cid=Twitter_espn_6344031 Not surprising at all, but it still sucks to find this out. This is going to be a longgggggggggg summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
