			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant said today that, if nothing else, he will certainly appear in the opening game of the Lakers game against the Bulls. In talking about his wrist injury, Bryant said his right wrist injury will not cause much impact on him, his wrist is no problem.</p>
<p>Bryant before the Lakers in the first preseason game with the Clippers were injured, when the race to the third quarter, Bryant basket ball immediate concern, when he tried to dunk been DeAndre &#8211; Jordan&#8217;s cover, he fell to the When the hand stays on the ground a bit, also was injured wrist. Originally thought it was only an ordinary sprain, but after receiving an MRI, doctors told Bryant, on his right wrist triangular ligament tear, ligament tear, but fortunately this is not serious, do not need surgery, but will take some time to recover, Bryant and therefore missed the second preseason game.</p>
<p>Today, Bryant did not participate in team training, in an interview, Bryant said his wrist is still &#8220;swollen and very painful.&#8221; But Bryant also said: &#8220;I will make every effort to find solutions, play campaign has always been my nature.&#8221;</p>
<p>If Kobe played with the Bulls battle for Christmas, then he may use when splinting the wrist. On his wrist injury, Bryant broke the news, said: &#8220;This injury may not be able to recover, because ligament has not, and I am powerless, but I have experienced many times before a hand injury, I will get everything. &#8221;</p>
<p>The past few seasons, Bryant often played with the injury. December 2009, Bryant right index finger fracture, Bryant was selected to bring plywood is played. Although each game a few minutes on the injury to be hurt, but Bryant persevered, and eventually led the Lakers won the season championship, Bryant himself crowned the Finals MVP.</p>
<p>Last season, regular season in mid-March in the battle with the Mavericks, Bryant had sprained his ankle when he even thought he had to the season, but in the end, Bryant ignored ankle injury, played in all 82 regular-season games. Lakers first round of the playoffs with the Hornets in the fourth game, the last time Paul Bryant on the defensive when he sprained his left ankle, but Bryant did not choose the truce.</p>
<p>This time, still no exception. Bryant&#8217;s old partner Fisher said yesterday: &#8220;If I in Las Vegas, I would bet, bet Bryant will play in the opener, he is the strongest guy I&#8217;ve ever seen one, he will find a solution , and his injuries do not use excuses. And I think he would cut his wrist injured bird, and then play games with the other hand opener. &#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>According to the latest news, the Clippers finally reached an agreement with the Hornets, Paul will be traded to the Clippers, while the Hornets will be Eric &#8211; Gordon, Ami slave, Kaman and the Clippers from Minnesota before the got the unprotected first-round pick. For the Clippers, the team can get Paul city, Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant&#8217;s performance a great degree, and sent their congratulations.</p>
<p>After several consultations, the Hornets finally started the transaction, Paul will join Los Angeles, but his new owner is not the Lakers, but the Clippers. For Paul to join the Clippers, the outside world is full of expectations, Paul learned that the new agreement is not out of the contract after the season, that means he will at least cooperate with the Clippers and Griffin two seasons. I believe with Paul, the Clippers style of play will not only look better, and the strength will be no small improvement.</p>
<p>Since the lockout ended, the rumors have been on Paul never stopped, and the Los Angeles Lakers and Clippers, two teams has been the most active pursuit of the queen&#8217;s two teams, but the Lakers also was infinitely close to Paul, because they Hornets and Rockets had reached a three-way deal, the Lakers will be in Paul&#8217;s time, the Union rejected the deal shot, causing no small controversy.</p>
<p>Although the Lakers did not get Paul, the Clippers become the final winner, but the Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant is still a large degree of performance, sent congratulations to the Clippers, &#8220;Clippers so ambitious is a good thing They always wanted to make progress, &#8220;Bryant said,&#8221; They are not only Griffin but more of a Paul, I think that the city of Los Angeles is a good thing, because the two ball teams are very competitive, which is great. &#8220;It is worth mentioning that in earlier asked if Paul was traded to the Clippers, Bryant replied,&#8221; Then I will feel very strange. &#8221;</p>
<p>However, this can not conceal Bryant&#8217;s disappointment, especially for the Lakers trading Odom&#8217;s behavior. Paul&#8217;s attempt in the transaction fails, the Lakers are also affected by the trouble, because the Lakers had to Odom as a bargaining chip, so Odom are very unhappy, so offered to be traded, Lakers Odom almost white gave the enemy calf. For this transaction, Bryant is very angry, frankly, &#8220;I do not like this deal.&#8221; Moreover, in recent days to accept the &#8220;Los Angeles Times&#8221; interview, Bryant is angry words talk, &#8220;I think we (Lakers) bad, we will be worse.&#8221; In the reporter asked &#8220;Do you want to do in Miami? &#8220;When Kobe is a joke,&#8221; today deal to me. &#8220;

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Shaquille O&#8217;Neal &#8211; the latest being for his autobiography, &#8220;Shaq is not cut: My Story&#8221; for publicity. A recent radio interview, he again chatted about former teammate Kobe Bryant &#8211; Bryant. Although there have been many disputes, but the &#8220;shark&#8221; like Kobe is the greatest player in Lakers history.</p>
<p>&#8220;For now look at the achievements, he may be the greatest Laker.&#8221; O&#8217;Neal said, &#8220;If he can retake a championship, it will be with Kareem (Abdul-Jabbar) flush, it makes him to reach that level. &#8221;</p>
<p>As we all know, OK there have been many disputes combination, and O&#8217;Neill exposed himself in his autobiography, also conducted on Bryant &#8220;death threat.&#8221; The former teammates on the field for the shot selection and character, O&#8217;Neal had a lot of complaints. But he never made a secret of Kobe Bryant poured in basketball the enthusiasm and technical ability to appreciate.</p>
<p>&#8220;This is another great.&#8221; O&#8217;Neill talked about already has five championship rings, in the history of the total score ranked No. 6 (27,868 points) and Kobe Bryant said, &#8220;His technique is very comprehensive. And I just big, big players only have the ability, I can only be attributed to the big players in the discussion. &#8221;</p>
<p>In fact, after receiving ESPN interview, O&#8217;Neal on the autobiography of &#8220;death threats&#8221; for a clarification and said OK combination is the &#8220;most dominant ever, but also the most controversial combination.&#8221; In the LeBron &#8211; James Bryant compared with, the &#8220;Shark&#8221; training on the respect of the latter into the former seriously difficult to do.</p>
<p>Previously, Bryant led his unit in 2010, said after beating the Celtics win, Jerry &#8211; West is the greatest Lakers players. In his view, can not beat the Celtics and enhance their historical position. Bryant said at that time: &#8220;(the best Lakers player) is West, to see him in here to do everything, whether a player or as a general manager who will take care of the team in good order, not only got Shaq, but also got me, almost single-handedly create a king of the division, so in my mind, he is the best. &#8221;</p>
<p>However, overall, the current history of the media generally considered the best player the Lakers Magic Johnson and Kobe Bryant can only be generated before. Magic Johnson and Kobe Bryant are five championship rings, but the magician has three MVP, but Kobe Bryant is only one. However, support for Kobe Bryant, who is a magician that does not have three consecutive experience, and his recent two consecutive years does not like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, James Worthy&#8217;s 50 greatest players in this class teammate, Kobe Bryant and therefore difficult to determine magician who is better. Of course, there are opportunities for this Kobe Bryant is no longer controversial topic, he only needs to retake a championship.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>David &#8211; Boys held a news conference, said they decided to some of the players had submitted to the court in the Northern District of California merged into the Minnesota litigation, which can speed up the litigation process. For the previous &#8220;secret negotiations between employers and employees are&#8221; rumors, Boise not only responded to the employers will blame him. He said: &#8220;Since the lawsuit submitted by the players, we are no negotiations between the two sides have failed to solve the problem or make efforts to restart negotiations, because the Union has made very clear that they are not interested in negotiating with us.&#8221;</p>
<p>As there is no next restart negotiations with the Alliance for the new season to make a last-ditch effort to keep the plan, Boyce said that in his view at this moment the two sides will not be any form of dialogue, he said: &#8220;The needs of both sides of the joint negotiation efforts, (but now we have players sided only). &#8221;</p>
<p>Last week, the Union president David &#8211; Stern called 30 team owners held a conference call, at that meeting, the employer did not discuss how to respond to player actions. Their strategy is holding on, waiting for players the first compromise. A source said, in fact, employers do not want to court with the players, they are waiting for Hunter to take the initiative to call Stern.</p>
<p>In this regard, Boise, also said: &#8220;I ​​do not object to the union to call, I would first pick up the phone call the other requirements of the people to solve problems through dialogue, but only if employers have to give up the previous hard-line stance, put low profile, otherwise, even if I take the initiative to call the league has no meaning. may take some time to decide they are not ready to negotiate it. &#8221;</p>
<p>So far, the coalition parties to initiate proceedings in addition to the players had issued a statement outside the practice, did not have any substantive response. However, according to sources, the player party joinder, the coalition must have 21 days to respond. Boyce said: &#8220;on litigation, I think the good thing is that I know in three weeks I was able to get employers to respond.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lengthy labor disputes annoying, but fortunately there are Shaquille O&#8217;Neal &#8211; the autobiography, &#8220;Shaq is not cut: My Story&#8221; . Already disclosed in the media section, about &#8211; Kobe Bryant and LeBron &#8211; James content become the focus of attention.</p>
<p>In Miami, the latest media exposure of the fragments, the &#8220;shark&#8221; on again Kobe Bryant and LeBron do a lot more, incidentally, also referred to his own. &#8220;Bryant interested in scientific training, he is like the robot dog (scientific dawg), every day at work, hard training hard every day and most players are just general training, an ordinary dog, do not pay attention to training methods, while I as size (too big) reason, the dog is a violation of the laws of nature, unable to conventional training. In fact, Bryant, LeBron can also be a kind of scientific dog, but he has chosen, like me, not in accordance with conventional training, so this is also hinder him (Kobe like that). &#8221;</p>
<p>O&#8217;Neill called the &#8220;dog&#8221; and meant no insult, but black popular title, with a metaphor to describe the players. The implication is that LeBron although he has outstanding talent, but the training effort is far better than Kobe, LeBron and perhaps this is still not able to get championship rings reasons.</p>
<p>Of course, O&#8217;Neill in his autobiography, there are some criticisms of Bryant. OK combination is still a hot topic in the NBA. &#8220;Shark&#8221; admitted that he and Kobe Bryant from the outset, not a trail, because they are a strong personality, are conceited type. The so-called mountain is difficult to allow two tigers, then the disintegration of the Lakers dynasty is also reasonable. O&#8217;Neill also said that once threatened to kill Bryant. If there is no veteran Brian &#8211; Shaw tried to stop, he and Kobe Bryant almost hands.</p>
<p>As for LeBron, Shaq also bluntly. He said when the Cavaliers, LeBron complete disregard coach Mike Brown &#8211; existence &#8211; &#8220;Our coach, Mike Brown &#8211; is a good man, but he must be careful, because no one can fight with LeBron . &#8221; And &#8220;Shark&#8221; also criticized LeBron fifth in the 2010 Eastern Conference semifinals and finals during the 2011 downturn in performance, frankly its too mad, it is outrageous.</p>
<p>With O&#8217;Neal&#8217;s autobiography was launched, no doubt there will be more irreparably exposed. In the days of downtime, many more fans at least talk.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Deadline is approaching, both sides decided to meet again, for the ultimate negotiations to save the 2011-12 season. According to multiple league sources said the message, both parties will be from November 9, two in the afternoon start negotiations again, this is the result of labor strive, but CBS Sports reporter Ken &#8211; Berg said, it will be a mini-talks, both sides are only five or six people to participate in it, because the negotiations are temporary decision, so many people are rushed to New York by air venue for negotiations.</p>
<p>Ended at 21:00 on November 9th, the labor negotiations have been carried out over eight hours, is still continuing.</p>
<p>The players union yesterday held an internal meeting in New York, the league&#8217;s 30 teams, 29 teams were represented at the end of the meeting, the union executive director Billy &#8211; Hunter and the main Xidelike &#8211; Fisher refused to accept the employers have expressed Now the proposal, employers can agree to labor&#8217;s basketball-related income is divided into 55 proposals, but only if employers have to make concessions in the system. As Union President David &#8211; Stern in the last ultimatum issued after talks broke down, so workers in the United States eager to 5 pm Wednesday deadline comes the rain once again the ultimate employer negotiations.</p>
<p>Now the workers refused to accept the employer&#8217;s proposal, which means that if the employers refuse to make concessions in the system, then this is bound to fruitless negotiations, the employers made worse after the proposal, more games may be canceled . However, Yahoo! sports experts Adrian &#8211; Pawlowski said Werner, David &#8211; Stern is making active efforts, he may present proposals for employers associated with the system, some minor aspects of change, fight with the workers reached by the new agreement, thus ending shut down.</p>
<p>&#8220;Stern proposed system may be on the employers of some of the subtle, does not affect the overall aspects of adjustment, which will be recognized by employers,&#8221; said one insider, &#8220;I do not think Stern is a problem. &#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;That would be extremely subtle changes,&#8221; said a league executive said.</p>
<p>Employers may make very small concessions, the problem is that they do it will make labor concessions satisfied, making the new agreement is reached. 50-50 players to accept the proposal, which means they gave up BRI is divided into seven percentage points a year is about $ 375 million. However, employers are still hardliners threaten reported worse proposal, if that ,2011-12 season and most likely not be maintained.</p>
<p>Of course, if Stern&#8217;s efforts, if effective, employers in the system has made small concessions to allow the workers satisfied, has been going on over one hundred and thirty days of downtime may really will end.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>New York, both sides met again 8.5 hours later still not able to reach agreement. In this round of bargaining among employers for the employees reported the highest up to 51% of basketball-related revenue-sharing proposal, but the workers still refused, and if you wait until the United States time next Wednesday workers still can not accept this proposal, then the owners The offer will become 47%, and have flexibility with the salary cap.</p>
<p>&#8220;We want to give employees sufficient time to consider the employers&#8217; latest proposal and I hope they can accept,&#8221; David &#8211; Stern said he refused this as an ultimatum, but said the owners are ready to reach an agreement.</p>
<p>But the players do not seem to intend to change their minds. &#8220;For us fans, the arena of our workers, waiters, today is a sad day, very depressed, sad day,&#8221; union main Xidelike &#8211; Fisher said, &#8220;say unequivocally that the tonight we are negotiating with a great sincerity, and hope to reach an agreement, why can not reach an agreement for, we are also very confused. &#8221;</p>
<p>Federal mediator George &#8211; Cohen participated in the negotiations, he and the labor and capital, respectively, had met, Stern said Cohen on the BRI and the salary cap system is divided into six recommendations made by employers to accept the first five, and hope to Write this number on Sunday in which a formal agreement, but Stern said the players&#8217; union lawyer Jeffrey &#8211; Kessler rejected these proposals.</p>
<p>&#8220;Mr. Kessler rejected the mediator&#8217;s proposal, rejected our proposal, I think I say do not lose the fair,&#8221; Stern said, &#8220;but the opportunity is always there, we hope that the unions are now on the table to accept the proposal. &#8221;</p>
<p>In negotiations with employers in the 50-50 did not insist, but made a 49% -51% of the float into recommendations, but Fisher did not buy it. &#8220;We simply can not possibly be the proportion of 51%, so this is not a floating of the terms.&#8221;</p>
<p>In the old labor agreement, players can be divided into 57% of BRI, and in the negotiation of new collective bargaining agreement among the players adhere to the bottom line is 52.5%. In today&#8217;s negotiations between employers and employees before the first boss who had an internal meeting, Stern said he believed that bosses will support the new agreement, but he did not consider whether a player will accept.</p>
<p>&#8220;I guess the possibility of not doing, or like that sort of thing and we hope the players can play the game, we also want to have a season,&#8221; Stern said, &#8220;We also hope to make the terms of the agreement to promote reached, to preserve more of the game. &#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Chicago Bulls guard Derrick &#8211; Rose&#8217;s temper through three seasons, has let himself become the top players. And his wages? Did not catch up with this speed. He recently said in an interview, hoping to abolish the salary cap restrictions.</p>
<p>As the rookie contract restrictions, the league MVP last season, only $ 5.5 million annual salary, far below the other Super League players. His rookie contract was for four years $ 22.5 million, no doubt, at the end of the contract, Ross will get a maximum salary.</p>
<p>&#8220;I want to just return to the previous era, when there is no salary cap this statement.&#8221; Ross told the Associated Press, said, &#8220;Before, they just left the college can give a player a huge contract, why not continue to do it? game is growing ah, they need to stop the current practice. &#8221;</p>
<p>The players union wants the players to complete rookie contract as soon as possible. U.S. time on Monday, the union executive director Billy &#8211; Hunter said, like Ross and Blake &#8211; Griffin such a good player because rookie contract in the body and can only get a salary far below their worth. Alliance, said they had given a new proposal: to increase the top rookie award bonuses, such as when the rookie class get selected as league MVP, or first, second or third-team honors while.</p>
<p>&#8220;We are not greedy,&#8221; Ross said, &#8220;We are certainly not greedy, they are all we have done is undoubtedly wrong.&#8221;</p>
<p>Earlier, both sides in the participation of the mediator had long talks, and discussed the &#8220;divided into 55 proposals,&#8221; but did not reach an agreement. Currently ,2011-12 regular season games before two weeks has been canceled, and will likely have more games to be canceled.</p>
<p>&#8220;I know, everyone wants to start the game, but the premise is to have a proper contract.&#8221; Ross said.</p>
<p>In the offseason, Ross training in Los Angeles, and his training there with the Atlanta Hawks Al &#8211; Horford. Ross is about 23 years old this month, is the youngest league MVP, as in addition to the history of the Bulls &#8211; Michael Jordan the only other player won the honor. &#8220;The most difficult thing is, when wake up, you see the game was canceled.&#8221; Ross said, &#8220;the feelings of fans watching the game pressing, shut down their damage may be greater.&#8221;</p>
<p>Last season, Rose averaged 25.0 points and 7.7 assists to lead the Bulls made an NBA-best 62 wins and achievements, but also into the Eastern Conference finals. However, LeBron &#8211; James to stop Miami where the pace of the Bulls. &#8220;I have been very hard, and seriously look at my basketball career. This is my life.&#8221; Ross said, &#8220;When people you have some negative evaluation of the time, this is normal, which is part of life you have to face on these issues. &#8221;</p>
<p>Before there were reports that Ross will participate in the exhibition world tour, but today&#8217;s latest news is that Ross will opt out, but to some other NBA players to the army exhibition.
