mao jud.. mas greedy ang mga owners kay after 50-50 na ang shares sa revenues.. gusto pa jud sa owners na i-hard cap ang salary sa mga players..

NBA All-Stars who could participate include Kevin Durant, Amar’e Stoudemire and Paul Pierce, sources said. Iverson is expected to announce the participants for all four teams in Las Vegas next week. The winner of the Nov. 12 games at Thomas & Mack Center will play in a championship game the next day. The Nov. 12 games are scheduled for 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. ET to allow players to attend the Manny Pacquiao-Juan Marquez fight that evening.

[FAQ]

Here are the owners who are willing to lose a season - if necessary .

• Paul Allen - Blazers . He was the guy who took over the last negotiation on the owners side when Stern called in sick . Wants "spending control" . Probably this means HARD CAP .

• Robert Sarver - Suns . Demanding salary rollbacks . He says he would lose $15 million if the league is running the same system , but only few millions if there's no season .

• Dan Gilbert - Cavs . No reason why , he just told everyone at the last meeting to "trust" his gut .

• Ted Leonsis - Wizards . Wants a hard cap like the NHL . Not afraid of losing a season since he already experienced it in 2004-05 NHL Lockout .

• Michael Heisley - Grizzlies . He's claiming he's not a big spender and want all teams to do the same . The team is currently on the market so he'd rather have his team sold .

• Glen Taylor - Wolves . Wolves is one of the smallest payrolls in the NBA , he thinks all teams should have similar payroll as his team .

• Maloofs brothers - Kings . Wants spending control . Want to get out of Sacramento . Want to move to Anaheim . Want to be in the playoffs , Finals , and win the Finals .

• Peter Holt - Spurs . Want to have fair playing field for all teams . Hard Cap .

• Stan Kroenke - Nuggets . Lost Carmelo to the big spender NYK . Many believes Kroenke made the idea of the "Carmelo Anthony rule" and was presented during the negotiation . The rule would prevent all teams from using the Bird exception to sign or extend a player acquired by trade . In other words he just doesn't want that Carmelo debacle to happen again .

• Michael Jordan - Bobcats . Wants salary rollback . That's it .

• Herb Kohl - Bucks . Said the current CBA is "broken" .

• Lawrence Tenanbaum - Raptors . Wants revenue sharing and spending control .

If you analyze it carefully , they want regulated spending , strict salary cap more like the NHL and the NFL .

These are the owners are willing to have the NBA back ASAP ...

• Mark Cuban - Mavs . Want to have the NBA immediately . Want shorter contracts though cuz he's hooked on Brendan Haywood's contract - $45 million , 5 years . Other than that , he has no issues .

• Jerry Buss - LAL . Willing to give whatever the NBAPA want .

• Micky Arison - HEat . Slave master of the troikas and master of manipulating the current system . He wants a comeback from last season .

• Wyc Grousbeck - Celtics . Got a TV deal so he want that money now .

• Mikhail Prokhorov - Nets . Like Grousbeack , he got a TV deal . Want the NBA to be back in business so they could work on moving his team to Brooklyn .

• Rich DeVos - Magic . Wants to talk to Dwight Howard and start convincing him to stay .

• Les Alexander - Rockets . Willing to have the NBA back in business , but want a shorter player contracts .

Owners on "I don't care-mode" .

• David Stern - NBA commissioner and fake owner of the Hornets (which is actually owned by his 29 bosses) . he just go whatever the decision of the majority .

• Greg Miller - Jazz . He lives in a Mormon-plagued state and arguing about money is a sin .

• Clay Bennett - OKC . Whatever the majority decides . Doesn't want to be a pain in the ass on Stern , after all he owe him a lot for moving the team from Seattle .

• Joshua Harris - 76ers . He just purchased the team last week . Doesn't want to be involved on the ongoing bargaining negotiation .

• Peter Guber and Joe Lacob - Warriors . Still new to the NBA ownership . Like Harris , they don't want to be involved on the ongoing negotiation . Whatever happens , they have Jerry West as their "adviser" .

• Tim Gores - Pistons . He didn't even sent a rep during negotiations .

• Jerry Reinsdorf - Bulls . He'll just do whatever Stern advise him to do .

• Herbert Simon - Pacers . Wants revenue sharing but don't want to be vocal about losing a season , after all , majority of the owners are in favor of it .

• Alex Meruelo , Hawks . Meh , he's waiting for the final approval of the purchase . In other words , he doesn't care , he's leaving anyways .

• Donald Sterling , Clippers . He just got the new Blackberry Bold and told everyone to e-mail him any updates .
