It looks like the NBA players and owners have finally realised that time is running out to salvage the full 2011/12 season. Another negotiating meeting has been set for Wednesday, just a week after the previous discussions. Prior to that, the two sides had barely spoken in weeks - so this is progress.
Sources say that the parties are still far from an agreement but more serious and more regular sessions must be taken as a good sign. It appears that if there is no agreement in two weeks' time, the pre-season schedule will have to be cancelled. After that, it's only a matter of time before the regular season is affected.
The next few meetings will be critical and fans around the world should cross their fingers that a compromise can be reached.
