Feature Article: NBA to end lockout; games would start Christmas Day
Early this morning, NBA fans received their first Christmas gift: a tentative agreement to end the 149-day lockout.
One final, 15-hour marathon negotiating session brought together the final elements of a new collective bargaining agreement that fans have been yearning for since owners locked out the players July 1.
The deal will allow the league to begin its season on Christmas Day, with the season's first tipoff to take place at Madison Square Garden, where the Knicks will play the Celtics at noon.
Knicks guard Roger Mason knows at least one owner who wished the NBA lockout ended with a labor agreement Thursday night: James Dolan.

NBA lockout pits selfish owners against each other
Heat owner Micky Arison owns not one but two of America’s 50 largest
yachts, according to a rich-person magazine. He lives on one of them.
This isn’t excessive in the world he inhabits. Both yachts combined
aren’t as large as the one built by the Russian billionaire owner of the
Chelsea soccer team.
People laugh when Mike Brown tells them he spends most weekdays in his office at the Lakers' training facility in El Segundo. They wonder what he does there, day after day while the NBA lockout drags on and on, with the 2011-12 season in jeopardy.
