According to ESPN, they are not really going to completely decertify like the NFL players did but will do all the legal and court stuff to get a "fair" deal done.

Because the NBA players union half-assed a lot of the planning, it would take 45-90 days to disband unlike the NFL which did it within a couple of days. They also didn't get any paperwork done ahead of time unlike the NFL's union which spent 2 years to prepare for a potential decertification and had all the paperwork ready well before it was used.
