the 3 billion I was talking about is the maximum in the TV Deal that Judge Doty has yet to award the players. As for damages in locking the players out, if the 8th District rules that they have the right to lock out the players, then that gives the owners leverage because no damages from a lockout would even begin to be calculated until long after some negotiated settlement is reached. Thus, the owners would not really fear damages from a future lawsuit, as much as the players would suffer from the immediacy of the no pay while locked out. Most likely damages would also be addressed as part of any settlement/agreement.
