Doobie needs some help

Postby Doobie on Fri Oct 14, 2011 1:36 am

Basically in Speech class we had to choose topics for an informative speech to present to the class. No opinions allowed, just conveying information. I chose to do an explanation speech on the 2011 NBA lockout. I need help with this. I'm wondering if any of you can post some good articles that I can extract information from (I need a minimum of 2 sources cited). I also need help coming up with 3 main points. This would be greatly appreciated as it is due next wednesday.

Knowing Doobie, he'll probably bitch about having to browse the site to find decent articles he can use or not even browse the sites at all because he's lazy like that. He even has to make a thread about his ineptness when there's a thread discussing the lockout in this very site, quite shocking indeed that the forum has a thread about the lockout.

Ban for posting in the wrong section.

Double ban for being so incompetent one can't do a Google search or visit ESPN.

Triple ban for choosing a topic about one knows nothing about.

Point 2: NBA 2K12 has Lakers with the highest rating. WTF again?
Point 3: No Ammo = RIP NBA anyways.

Well one of my main issues is choosing the 3 main points to discuss.. Here are some of what I thought about, I don't know which to choose. If anyone can help with more topics that would be greatly appreciated.

I. The BRI split being an issue and why it's an issue ( I need to make that into a complete sentence)
II. Player options during the lockout
III. Why the lockout is happening in the first place.
IV. How the lockout will affect revenue for both parties (explaining this with numbers)
V. What the players/ owners would like to see happen for the lockout to end.
VI. Comparison to the NFL lockout and how it ended.
VII. Talk about the 1999 NBA lockout and how they finally agreed to a deal.

My introduction would basically be explaining to the class about the NBA, defining what the NBA is and what a lockout is.

The link I posted would give you background info on at least a few of those topics.

Refer to our lock out threads. They're quite informative too.
