ouch Amico bringing the big guns, but Hahn has said the same. He did say "on the verge of blowing up," while Broussard said "talks ended."
 
@alanhahn: I'm hearing things may be on the verge of blowing up again. BRI is extremely sensitive topic.
 
AAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I'm noticing NOBODY else is tweeting any of this! What is really going on!?

Hope so. They just better not leave on sour terms and screw this up. Broussard, I believe is not even at the hotel, so his sources are clearly secondary.

BTW, if they're talking BRI, I'm guessing they are both in agreement about "the system?"
 
Not getting too excited. Could easily see this being cleared up tomorrow and hoping it does. They made too much progress it seems and they can regroup to make the numbers work.

Some conflicting info here about what's going on. Stand by ...
 
Amico


Source with direct knowledge of NBA talks: Union wants 52 pct of BRI, owners willing to give 50. Expect them to meet at 51. "Soon."

Confirmed: talks done for today. Have hit a roadblock. Waiting for word from league/union.
 
Yuyuza..... what the fuck do all these conflicting reports mean?
 
@alanhahn: Don't get too uptight...this was bound to hit a snag once BRI hit table again. As Fisher said, closer you get, tougher it is.
 
@WindhorstESPN: Source said talks snagged when players wouldn't accept less than 52% of BRI. No talks scheduled. More cancellations today
 
Brian Windhorst: League source said talks broke when players wouldn't accept less than 52% of BRI. No talks scheduled. More cancellations today.
 
KBergCBS: Labor talks have indeed ended. Chris Paul told Bloomberg News on way to car, "We just couldn't reach an agreement."
 
So close.... yet so far away. ugh. They better get back at it tomorrow. From what I can tell, one of the main negotiators (Kessler) was on his way to the meetings when they broke off.
 
Adrian Wojnarowski: League source confirms NBA-NBPA labor talks have broken off, with two sides again digging in on revenue split of BRI
 
Parties still meeting separately, will address media soon.
 
Talks are, indeed, done for today. Union to speak in a few minutes...
 
Maxey......

can't wait to see how david stern happily spins this one. updates from meetings don't sound so cheerful.

Told by two league sources in last 12 hours owners made concessions on system with plan to hardline players on BRI ...
 
Woj

Another source says BRI was only "partly" of breakdown in talks.

Well, Silver just about said as much yesterday.

Parties will speak with media in hotel lobby. No jovial press conferences today.
