after their strike. What sent me over the edge was Patrick Ewing saying "this is about feeding my family". Now I know NBA players tend to have 10 kids from 8 different women but unless Patrick had 25,000 kids he would have no problem feeding his family on the millions he made every year. I can only imagine the disgust of some of the older players that made a fraction of what these guys do today (even accounting for inflation).

This is all about old fashioned, run of the mill greed. Players want a bigger slice of the pie.
