Talk me back on the ledge guys!
I wouldn't get your hopes up. A lot of what Fisher is doing right now is to quiet down the players, who heard nothing but disastrous reports from the last negotiating session. Right now, several prominent agents are calling to decertify, and there's been a suggestion that there could be a coup to replace Billy Hunter. This report is spun to take the heat off Hunter, and to show that things aren't as bad right now for the players as has been suggested.
At the same time, what's new in this report? That the Lakers and Knicks would be okay with the current system? The same current system that allows them to outspend everyone else? Would CableVision revenue even be subject to revenue sharing? I doubt it. Of course Dolan and Buss want to take the deal and play the season; there's a ton more money in it (and Buss has to worry about Kobe getting older, and about possibly losing the ability to land someone like Dwight Howard in a sign-and-trade).
So, this is much ado about nothing. We didn't learn anything that we didn't already know, except for some self-serving spin from the union.
