There were earlier reports that a potential agreement was sabotaged by Kobe Bryant, Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett. Â Now there’s reports that Bryant and Fisher are in favor of the 50-50 split while others like Pierce and Garnett are still not. Â Read more after the jump.
From Jason Whitlock:
According to my source, at least one five-time champion, NBA superstar with the initials K.B. was on board with Fisher’s push for a 50-50 split. Hunter is firm that the players should not accept less than 52-48. According to my source, Hunter and a member of the executive committee convinced Fisher to stand firm at 52-48 after they questioned the Lakers point guard about his relationship with Stern and deputy commissioner Adam Silver.
