Billups ready to sit out season
By Mark J. Miller
It remains extremely unclear what will happen with the NBA lockout as the players try to figure out whether the current offer is good enough for them or not. One player who knows how he feels on it, though, is New York Knicks point guard Chauncey Billups(notes). Billups is scheduled to make $14.3 million this season but he's willing to sacrifice that if the players can eventually come up with something that he thinks is a fair collective bargaining agreement, according to ESPN.
"For the betterment of the league going forward, that's just something that I'm going to have to sacrifice and that's the position I'm going to have to take," Billups said on ESPN New York 1050.
Tell that to your teammate Andy Rautins(notes), Chauncey. ESPN reports that the 25-year-old is staying with his parents outside of Syracuse to save his money during the lockout. "It's nice to get some home cooked meals up here," Rautins told ESPN. "It's nice because it's a rare opportunity to spend time with family and friends. Normally, you'd been in a busy season by this time. But I've been trying to see the positives in [staying home] and there's a bunch so far. It's saving me a lot of money right now and I think that's a big concern for a lot of players."
