Negotiations will continue on Tuesday, October 18, when a federal mediator will meet with both sides. If this federal mediator can somehow manage to get a deal done between the owners and players, then the 2011-2012 NBA season will commence, albeit shortened. Life will go on but who really benefits from a shortened NBA season?

This time, Dwyane Wade and Dirk Nowitzki have brought friends. Ever since Wade partnered up with LeBron James and Chris Bosh in Miami to form “The Big Three”, nearly everyone outside of Miami has taken pleasure in their failures throughout the season. They showcased themselves in a grandiose ceremony, crowning themselves champions for “not five, not six, not seven” years. Yet despite a 9-8 start, late game mishaps, and the constant criticism of nearly every possession, here they are in the Finals, an achievement that could be considered by some as a success in their first year together.

Moving On in Cleveland

There’s a good chance that Cleveland will never get over their hometown hero breaking their hearts and bringing his talents to South Beach. However, the show must go on in Cleveland and luckily for Cavs fans, their season will be short. Their record without LeBron James since 2007 is 1-13. Project that out over an 82-game schedule and realize Cleveland has a long way to go. However, the only game that matters to the Cavs will be December 2 – Miami visits Cleveland. Just how loudly will LeBron get booed?
