NBA Lockout appears to be over

Shame.  I was hoping they'd lose the season, but it appears the Grinch stole Christmas again.

Essentially the same except I hope the nba would never recover.

Oklahoma City needs the NBA.  Thunder home games bring in roughly $1 million dollars each game so in a full season that's a little over $40 million.  This season that will be $33 million or so.  Of course, with our success in the 2011 Playoffs, the Thunder brought in an extra $10 million to our City.  We are expected to contend for the Western Division crown again this year (that kind of prediction scares me to death), so hopefully we can get closer to a full season's worth of revenue.

I like this new CBA as it gives the small market teams like the Thunder a better chance to compete in getting the really good players that always seem to go to the Lakers, Mavs, Heat, or Celtics, your large market franchises, and gives us a very good chance at keeping arguably two of the leagues best young players in Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook.

Yeah sure...but no one needs Oklahoma City.
