    ok u guyz r probably going to think im a retard for not knowing this, but Wtf is the CBA?
    Collective Bargaining Agreement.
    Is under debate and negotiation right now, and it determines ALL of the rules when it comes to running the team and acquiring players. Not a silly question by any means.

      It's an agreement between the Owners and Players Association which details the rules by which the league and teams distribute wealth among the owners and players. It also dictates such as the type of salary cap, how much players get paid, defines signing and trade exception, defines trading rules, etc.

      The current agreement is about to expire and the owners and the PA(Players Association) are in negotiations. Things don't look good so far and the owners are threatening to lock the players out. Estentially, they won't commence next season until an agreement is reached. This means players won't get paid.

              Thought you covered it.

              Did some tweaks after you quoted me. It's not as easy posting from an iPhone.

                Tell me about it. I find myself doing that from time to time at work and it ain't easy.
                Not to mention the iPhone autocorrect almost ALWAYS makes you say something you don't want to be. haha

                    haha thanks man.
                    Just my opinion though.
                    I know alot of people consider Lebron to be a very attractive Ogre.

                        haha If he weren't playing basketball he woulda been cast in the Lord of the Rings. Dude is gnarly looking.

                          the raps maybe building or rebuilding like the thunder, but their success doesnt necessarily translate to that of the Raptors.
                          Its not math. I dont think there's a sure formula when it comes to basketball or sports in general.
                          The Thunder took 5 years to get back to the playoffs. The Raps are in the 8th month.

                          I agree with your point, btw. I just feel people expect to have a winner overnight - it didn't work that way for ATL or SEA/OKC or most teams - exception being BOS 2 years ago. I think everyone can agree that was a unique situation.

                                They just have algorithms that measure the most searched/accessed sites probably...Google being #1 and the next 199 probably porn & TMZ type sites. The RR cant compete. lol.
