AA's Lockout Perspective
"In all honesty, and it's hard to do, but it takes responsibility on both parties. Obviously, I'm a player and I can only take responsibility from the players' standpoint, but it just takes responsibility from both parties and understanding of that. Until you have a complete understanding that it's not worth it, that sometimes winning a fight will result in a loss. You have to know that. And if you get caught up in the moment and you don't recognize that, regardless of whether you win your battle or not, player or owner, you're gonna do damage.
"You have to ask yourself, is that damage worth it. Is that damage worth that win?"
A refreshing respite from the constant blame game that the NBA negotiations have become.

I don't feel bad for the guys who got paid a ton already and should have enough saved to survive
I was trying to describe both the owners and the players.
I kind of feel bad, but not really bad, for the guys who were just entering this market and who are not going to get the big NBA dollars immediately. They will have to learn another trade or maybe go abroad and play for lower dollars.
The people who I actually feel sorry for are the poor schlumps who work at the arenas and for the tv stations making minimum wage and who were counting on working a few months doing NBA stuff. They’re the people who really have to scramble. There ought to be some way to find a compromise that doesn’t leave those folks out in the cold.
