What's up with the small amount of releases this past basketball season? Did it have to do with the lockout?

Had to do with the lockout, and Panini having the exclusive rights to the NBA.

I don't think the sets even featured any rookies. That's pretty weak.

That's what happens when only one Company has the rights to produce cards! Send a letter (or two!) to the NBA league office in NYC, expressing your displeasure as a fan and a collector with their decision to give an exclusive to one Company. You are the customer, after all. Can't hurt to make a stink!

Instead of writing a letter, I think I'd rather just complain about it on a message board and call it a day.
