The NBA's response to the NBPA filing Tuesday an unfair labor charge against the league with the National Labor Relations Board:
"There is no merit to the charge filed today by the Players Association with the National Labor Relations Board, as we have complied — and will continue to comply — with all of our obligations under the federal labor laws. It will not distract us from our efforts to negotiate in good faith a new collective bargaining agreement with the Players Association."
