2 Great Developments for the NBA's Players in Their Upcoming Labor Battle

 By Kevin L. Davis (@EsquireSports)

Over the weekend there were 2 possibly monumental developments occurred that should impact the labor landscape. First off the Owners are no longer insisting on non-guaranteed contracts and now a good sign from the NFL if this article is true >>>> ESPN Reports NFL Owners' Splintering Within Their Ranks.

As I've been saying all year I predict that there will be more unity between Players than Owners, and the fact that Owners of NFL teams can't stay united against a much weaker union is a good sign for the NBA's Players. Why? The Owners have been trying to worsen conditions all the Players (an optimal setting for unity), whereas the issues that Owners have pushed for that help the small market teams hurt the big market teams, and vice versa.

Stay tuned guys......this is going to be interesting.
