Why is the NBA appealing this ruling?
Had enough Melo?

VERY IMPORTANT - Found this on a thread from ephus:
Basically says “we won and we are really happy!” USA Today is tweeting that the NBA plans to appeal. To appeal (at least under the 2005 CBA), the NBA would have to file notice within 10 days and its brief in 15-25 days after the arbitrator’s ruling (unless the parties agree to a different schedule). Until the appeal is decided, the arbitrator’s decision HAS NO EFFECT. So, the timing here could get really messy, since teams start signing players on July 11. In ruling on the appeal, the Appeal Panel would be required to defer to the findings of fact of the arbitrator, unless they found he made a “clear error”. The arbitrator’s legal conclusions, however, would be entitled to no deference. That means, as a practical matter, that if Prof. Dam based his decision on a factual finding about how prior waived players were treated, that would be very difficult to overturn. But, if Prof. Dam just based his decision on the plain text of the CBA, the Appeal Panel would reconsider the issue as if Dam had never ruled (other than considering the strength of Dam’s reasoning). link to unions comments http://www.nbpa.org/nbpa-news/test-story The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant.

I guess this is the best Knick win since the 1985 lottery if it holds up.
