NBA cancels games in November By Cheyenne Mello

The NBA lockout on Friday had failed again to generate an agreement, the league will cancel the rest of November's regular season games, basketball officials said.
"We made a lot of concessions, but this time, unfortunately, it's not enough," said by Executive Director Billy Hunter. He told reporters after a five-hour-plus meeting with NBA officials in New York.
Hunter said he felt "snookered," by Stern, who had promised Thursday to make a financial move Friday.
Hunter said the NBA wanted the players to move to 50% while accepting concessions on the salary cap/luxury tax arrangement that the union deemed prohibitive.
