At one point during the most important negotiation in two years of psychological and economic warfare, someone took a moment for comic relief.
NBA commissioner David Stern announced on Tuesday that the league would cancel the rest of its preseason schedule effective immediately
The clock on the NBA season is getting close to striking midnight. It's that hour.
David Stern supposedly was in a very threatening, do-or-die type of mood after Wednesday's labor talks.
Officials from the NBA and its players' union are finalizing details of a bargaining session that will take place Tuesday in New York and possibly extend to Wednesday, a person familiar with the details told CBSSports.com.
While providing no details of his latest meeting with locked out players, Commissioner David Stern is acknowledging that "the calendar is not our friend" when it comes to keeping the NBA season intact.
Full committees of NBA owners and players met Tuesday with a hint of progress on the economic split but no signs of compromise on the hard salary cap owners are trying to impose.
There has been talk of a revised draft being discussed in the CBA negotiations for some time.
It will be a busy day Wednesday in the NBA labor case, with another bargaining session featuring only the heaviest hitters and activity in the league's federal lawsuit against the players, as well.
Top negotiators for NBA owners and players are back at the bargaining table for just the second time since the league's lockout began.
David Stern said a few weeks ago that he'd have an idea whether or not games were going to be missed this season by Labor Day.
While owners and players are not expected to hold the second full bargaining session of the lockout until next month, a high-level meeting of top negotiators for both sides will take place next week, a person with knowledge of the meeting confirmed to CBSSports.com on Thursday.
The NBA currently has thirty teams, but the league's commissioner, David Stern, seems open to the possibility that that number of franchises could shrink in the future.
Executive pay is always a touchy subject, so when reports surfaced that NBA commissioner David Stern was hauling in upwards of $20 million per year in salary, there was plenty of outrage among fans and current players alike.
Back in February at All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles, NBA commissioner David Stern declared that his services wouldn't be worth a dollar during a work stoppage caused by the ongoing NBA lockout.
The NBA today announced it is filing suit against the NBPA for "unfair labor practices" with the National Labor Relations Board, countering the same move from the NBPA last month, and a federal suit to pre-emptively cut off any potential civil actions pertaining to antitrust law violations.
When NBA owners and players convene Monday for their first full-scale bargaining session since the lockout was imposed on July 1, the real news will be unfolding far from midtown Manhattan
When the NBA entered the lockout, David Stern's office issued what is essentially a nuclear gag order, more of a "shun order" to members of the league office, coaches, team officials and staff.
While the basketball world was obsessed Tuesday with the release of an NBA schedule that may never happen, CBSSports.com has learned that the owners and players may not convene for another full-blown collective bargaining session until August.
What does Friday's ruling by the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in the NFL labor dispute mean to the NBA lockout?
The NBA is disputing a report questioning its financial losses, saying the estimates used as the basis of the article "do not reflect reality."
Representatives for NBA players and owners will meet Thursday, hours before the collective bargaining agreement expires, and commissioner David Stern says that's still enough time for a deal.
The clock is ticking on the NBA's labor negotiations, and the word is on Friday that the league has run out of time for one major annual event.
NBA commissioner David Stern declared Friday that an unofficial drop-dead date is looming next week in the accelerating negotiations to prevent a lockout.
The NBA isn't resting on its laurels as a pacesetter in sports diversity.
