Well, at least NBA fans won't have to worry about the entire season being cancelled. I'm glad this lockout wouldn't be a big concern any longer. Remember the NHL lockout that cancelled the entire 2004-05 season? That included regular-season games, the All-Star game, and the Stanley Cup playoffs, and none of the teams would play until the start of the 2005-06 season. What happened to the NHL in the 2004-05 season won't happen to the NBA this time around.
