		<description><![CDATA[Not trying to go on a rant or anything, but I think the lockout has damaged the way people view the players.

What&#039;s damaged is that the players are calling owners greedy. Players use the term &quot;the NBA is a business&quot;, but when it comes to the lockout, owners are greedy, not trying to profit every team there is. No, it&#039;s not longer a business, but just greed. 

What&#039;s damaged is that the players aren&#039;t satisfied with 51% and want 52.5% of the BRI.

What&#039;s damaged is that the people arguing for that extra 1.5% aren&#039;t going to be around in a couple of years.

What&#039;s damaged is that while players want that extra 1.5%, I&#039;m most likely not going to have a job period to pay off my student loans after I graduate.

What&#039;s damaged is that sure the owners and players still have money, but all those arena workers, bus drivers, concessions, won&#039;t have and now have the task of finding another job with America being almost 10% jobless.

I&#039;m not trying to hate on Danny Granger, just felt like saying what needs to be said. They say &quot;Don&#039;t hate the player, hate the game&quot;. How can I hate the game while that&#039;s the only thing I don&#039;t at the moment?]]></description>
