Lockout update: Talks last 8 1/2 hours, will resume Thursday afternoon
// NEW YORK — They’re finished talking — but only temporarily. NBA owners and players logged another 8 1/2 hours of time together Wednesday after spending 16 hours negotiating Tuesday, and mediator George Cohen announced shortly before 7 p.m. that talks had adjourned for the night and would resume at 2 p.m. EDT Thursday. Cohen also convinced both side to agree to a gag order, meaning there will be no official word from the players, the owners or commissioner David Stern on whether anyone
Lockout update: Stern leaves, might be back

Will David Stern be flexible with the Board of Governors’ schedule if a deal is within reach? We got an answer to the second one when the league announced that a 2 p.m. meeting had been postponed until this evening to allow bargaining talks to continue.
Lockout talks end after 16 hours, to resume in morning
By Chris Sheridan NEW YORK — After more than 16 hours of meetings, there still is no deal to end the NBA lockout. Also, nobody is talking. Owners and players met Tuesday into Wednesday for what was by far their longest negotiating session since the lockout was imposed, breaking up after 2 a.m. and agreeing to reconvene later Wednesday morning after a few hours sleep. Both sides heeded the wishes of federal mediator George Cohen and declined to say anything publicly. Whether this represented tangible progress
