case of crossing guards or owners, labor dispute comes down to money - the NBA lockout involves much more. The current unemployment - the fourth in league history - began on July 1, 2011, when the previous collective agreement (CBA) was completed after six years. The CBA is the work plan (fixing wages, trade rules, etc.) between players and owners. Without a collective bargaining agreement with players, the NBA will be subject to U.S. antitrust laws, which protect against monopolies.

In the months before the expiration of the CBA, the owners and players' unions tried to negotiate a new agreement to avoid a strike. When both sides have not reached an agreement on June 30, the owners declared a lockout and began walking a tightrope. This is what is at stake:


revenue sharing

Simply put, the owners say they are losing money. Not all but most. When negotiations began working, NBA Commissioner David Stern of the said 22 of the 30 teams in the league would lose a total of $ 340 million this season. Although Stern did not say that the franchise is losing money, it is assumed that teams in smaller markets - such as the Indiana Pacers and Denver Nuggets - suffer more because, unlike the NFL, NBA is no revenue sharing. In other words, if the Boston Celtics have a lucrative TV contacts and local Portland Trailblazers not, well, that's how the verification rebounds. (Not that the owners opened their books and the players showed exactly where and why they were not profitable.)

Yet some teams in the major media markets - including New York Knicks and Los Angeles Clippers - is likely to have the most money, but this has not led championships. As far as players are concerned, this is a problem of the owners, not theirs.

cap

To create greater parity in the league because of the imbalance of income distribution, the owners want impose the so-called "hard cap", which sets the total amount of each team can spend. (You can not afford to keep Kobe Bryant next year? Sorry, Lakers, you will need to download Lamar Odom to make room in the budget.) Of course, players are vehemently opposed to a hard limit. On the other hand, like the NHL players. That the owners of the league fought for a bound book for years and not get one until a lock in 2004-5 caused the cancellation of the season. Sound familiar?

The players, however, wants to keep the current system in place - the "soft hat" - which requires a "luxury tax" on a computer if your total income exceeds a certain amount. (And there ways around this amount.) Luxury Tax is shared with other computers that do not overspend.

Similarly, the owners also want to impose a limit on the size and duration of contracts with NBA teams are not overwhelmed by the stars in the face of the caller.

Basketball

revenues

Apparently the heart of the NBA lockout. Under the collective agreement which expired in June, players have received 57% of revenues related to basketball (IRB) - Ticket sales, television contracts, concessions, etc. - while the owners were given 43%. When negotiations began, the players agreed to split 53-47 IRB. Later, this figure dropped to 52.5%, but the owners were adamant to achieve a 50-50 split. The players have united to reject the proposal. As Detroit Pistons forward Charlie Villanueva tweeted, "ask the owners reversed R 50/50, sounds good, but in reality, a 47/50 split of the 46 + or, of course not, Together We Stand." (The League also created a Twitter account, @ NBA_labor to get your message.)

In the most recent proposal of the owners, seeking a 50-50 split of the BIS and start the season 72 games on December 15. But not many players. Founded by Bob Cousy of the Boston Celtics, the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA) was the union of players in the NBA since 1954. Its current president, the Los Angeles Lakers point guard Derek Fisher, and the general manager, Billy Hunter, conducted the negotiations for the players.

But Monday, when the players refused the offer of the most recent owners, the NBPA has announced its intention to dissolve the union and the league to pursue antitrust violations. While this theory ends any hope of a season in the NBA - as it moves from negotiation to litigation - which is not irreversible. No marriage is not to prevent individual players with each team trading, although this scenario is unlikely. (On the afternoon of Monday, many players support Twitter for the dissolution of the union and seemed prepared to endure a long stop.)
