Lockouts Biggest Losers

Boston Celtics

It was in question if the Celtics had enough in the tank 2 years ago.  Last year, with teams re-tooled and re-structured, it became very apparent that the athleticism just wasn't there.  Rondo desperately needs to find his jumper, so even the President stops ragging on him.  If this team was any chance of survival, they are going to need to figure out a way to infuse some young talent fast.

Los Angeles Lakers

Another case of another team that really needs to try to win now and not later.  Kobe and Pau are not getting any younger, but I have a feeling a year off means that Bynum will get a lot heavier.  This team should do everything in its power to get a season because the window is closing.

Blake Griffin

Now three seasons into the NBA with only one under his belt.  The actual loser is probably the NBA fans since we rolled out a Kia to play defense and couldn't stop him.

Tim Duncan

Last year felt like one the last years for Tim.  Unfortunately, the team is struggling to find help around him as he is not the same player that he used to be.  The ironic twist could be a strike shortened season, which could completely play to the Spurs advantage.

TNT/ESPN/Every TV Station

The ratings for NBA games were climbing to record levels last season.  Games were seeing increases of audiences at 40%!  The stories of Lebron and Kobe, with Dirk stepping up, and the young talent piling in, the game never looked better, which leads to the biggest loser of all.


NBA Fans

The NFL ending the lockout acted like a tease.  The NBA lockout doesn't look close.  Somebody please fix this soon.
