The 2011-12 NBA season is in jeopardy. Billy Hunter announced that the team representatives voted unanimously to dissolve the union and signals the players' intent to take their battle with the owners into federal court. They planned to file an antitrust lawsuit within 48 hours. The suit will seek a summary judgment that deems the NBA shutdown to be illegal. The NBA's only previous work stoppage reduced the 1998-99 season to 50 games. Monday was the 137th day of the lockout.
