In case you hadn't heard, the NBA lockout is over - almost.
Only a majority vote by players and owners stands in the way of an NBA season beginning Christmas Day. At this point, it's believed approval by both sides is merely a formality.
But this announcement didn't take place until 3:40 am Friday morning. A time in which most were fast asleep.
So one can only imagine the reactions of NBA players as they arose from their deep sleep Friday morning to missed calls, texts, and tweets announcing they can go back to work in less than a month.
Fortunately, there's Twitter.
Which means we were all privy to their (mostly) enjoyable initial responses.
Carmelo Anthony
Let the exclamation marks commence!!!!!!!
Andrew Bogut
And the elongation of wordssssss!
Stephen Curry
Give Curry this: he makes great use of the space provided.
