'Substantial Faction' of NBA Players Pushing to Start Season on MLK Day

-

As the NBA gears up for a December 22 start to the new season, a "substantial faction" of NBA players are pushing for the season to begin on MLK Day (Jan. 18). Yahoo Sports' Chris Haynes first reported the news on Wednesday and said this faction of players includes several star players as well. This comes on the heels of NBA champ with the Los Angeles Lakers Danny Green speculating that LeBron (and other vets) could miss the first month of the season if it does begin in December. 

Before the Board of Governors agreed on the Dec. 22 start date, NBA commissioner Adam Silver told CNN that he thought a January start would be the most realistic option, although that stance has clearly changed. According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski and Brian Windhorst, the league is also "abandoning plans to delay the opening with hopes of incorporating fans back into arenas."

He’s played a mafia don in  American Gangster  and a dodgy police detective in Training Day  but now Denzel Washington wants to be one of the good guys. The Oscar-winning actor told Reddit users during an  Ask Me Anything session yesterday that he wanted to take on the  role of 007 . “The next James Bond? They better hurry up! Yes I would! Who's doing James Bond now..Daniel Craig! Did they shoot another one?” He even went so far as to launch a social media campaign, saying, “Everybody should tweet Denzel is James Bond! Send it to the studio! We start the Denzel is Bond campaign today!” Reddit users were quick to spread the word, with pm_me-please posting “I just tweeted #DenzelIsJamesBond everybody do it now!” British actor Craig  has been playing 007 since 2006 when he starred in a darker remake of  Casino Royale .
