the union will go on with plans to meet with players Saturday in Miami, where a number of All-Stars are playing in a charity game, and Monday in Los Angeles.
No further talks have been scheduled, and union executive director Billy Hunter has said it could be a month or two before the sides meet again. And while there had been no formal discussions since Tuesday, there was an expectation they would try to talk sometime before the end of the weekend.
“We told the union today that we were willing to meet as early as Sunday,” NBA spokesman Tim Frank said. “We also advised them that we were unwilling to move above the 50-50 split of revenues that was discussed between the parties on Tuesday but that we wanted to meet with them to discuss the many remaining open issues. The union declined.”
“Reducing our share of BRI by 7 points to 50 (percent)—a level we have not received since the early 1990’s—is simply not a fair split. We refused to back down,” they wrote. “As we have done since the beginning, we again indicated a willingness to compromise, and asked the owners to do the same. They refused.”
The question is whether it’s offered again. Stern and Silver were both careful to point out that the 50-50 concept wasn’t a formal proposal, an important distinction in the language of bargaining. So Stern was asked if that meant the owners were officially back at the 53-47 split in their favor.
“Back schmack,” he said. “You know, we’re not … we’re ready to meet and discuss any subject anyone wants to talk about. We’d like not to lose the first two weeks of the season, but it doesn’t look good.”
