NBPA and Owners Have First Substantive Talks Since Lockout......No Progress Made

by Kevin L. Davis (@EsquireSports)

Yesterday in what has to be viewed as a good sign David Stern and his high level executives (deputy commissioner Adam Silver, Spurs owner and labor relations committee head Peter Holt, and T-Wolves owner and Board of Governors chairman Glen Taylor) met with Billy Hunter, along with NBPA player-execs Derek Fisher and Theo Ratliff

Unfortunately the fact that there was a meeting seems to be the only good news to report. Neither side produced an offer, and it currently appears that neither the Players or the Owners are willing to make any concessions yet. However they did agree to meet again in the coming weeks

Stay tuned sports fans maybe there will be something new to report soon.
