Denver better have a full roster if they are going to be the other half of the doubleheader.

FWIW, Stephen A Smith reported on ESPN radio that Fisher and Kobe are willing to accept 50%, while other players (KG & Pierce) would not

Why are KG and Pierce suddenly "the voice" of the players? Who the hell do they think they are? Do they know how much money they stand to lose with canceled games vs taking less BRI?
Bit over reactive. You don't even know if that's true.

Games are GONE. That money is as good as gone since this whole argument is based on concessions of future income anyway.
players are stupid, they can't grasp the concept of losing future earnings right? They only deal with the right now and right now they aren't feeling anything at all, the only one that's leaking at this moment are the owners.

They've made too much progress to throw everything out the window and start over.
