NBA Lockout

Empty arenas. No long lines at the door. No excessive honking after a win. No popcorn being thrown in the air. No loud chants of "BEAT L.A!" No jaw-dropping dunks. No awe-inspiring three-pointers at the buzzer. No wicked crossovers. No No. 6 out on the court breaking ankles. Welcome to the "who knows what day" of the NBA lockout.

It's the 2nd of November. The time where NBA fanatics should be prepping for another great NBA season. But no. We are experiencing a lockout because the owners and players can't compromise. Both sides are just being absurd. They are losing millions of dollars every single day players aren't out on that court. They are losing the support of millions of fans worldwide. They are causing thousands to be unemployed. They are just being ridiculous. End of story.

I don't even care that there isn't an NBA team in Seattle. I just want to see where AMAZING happens! I want to see the heated rivalry games between the Celtics and the Lakers.  I want to see Lebron go flying through the air and dunk in Kobe's face. I want to see Ray Allen make almost every three-pointer he attempts. I want to hear the crowd's reaction to a blown call by the refs or the sound of the crowd at the end of a Game 7 in the Finals.

Not only do I want it, but millions of other do too. #letamazinghappen
