It’s guys like Siler who have a greater majority within the union and therefore a greater impact if they can head overseas.

Like I said in my comment on the Bryant thread (a comment which apparently was removed) this doesn’t make sense. Guys like Garrett Siler going overseas will not have an “impact” on anything other than Siler’s bank account. Marginal players go overseas every year; if more of them go, the owners won’t care. And it’s highly unlikely that so many of them will go that it will affect the NBAPA substantially.

if, however, Bryant, Nowitzki Durant, Gasol, Nash, Allen and Williams all went, that might–might, not for sure–cause the owners some consternation.
