“The good thing about this whole situation is that the fans are thirsty for basketball, we’re thirsty for basketball and we want to play it,” said free agent forward Caron Butler. “Everyone needs to understand that we’re locked out. We’re not on strike. We’re locked out. We want to play basketball, so when we’re able to play basketball under the right terms, we’re ready.”
