It's greed or fear of losing out on something. Automatically, people want what they don't have. It's not thinking it's instinct, part of a "lizard" brain reaction to situations of scarcity. Historically (and I mean millions of years ago) the ones that took part survived those that didn't were...

Seems silly. This is a classic Lose/Lose situation. A bunch of millionaires pissing at each other while the public (fans) gets frozen out. It would serve them right if attendance and revenues fall to all time lows. If I never watched another NBA game, I wouldn't miss it so much.
