08:07 AM ET 05.04 | It's never too early to think about one's future. Although the NBA's current collective bargaining agreement expires in nearly two months -- July 1, to be exact -- Nets point guard Deron Williams is already considering taking his talents abroad. "I'm already looking into playing overseas," said Williams, who was in Santa Monica, Calif., Tuesday taking part in an event featuring his favorite video game series, Call of Duty. "I haven't looked anywhere in general; I'm just looking into the possibility of playing over there. But I'm not going to make a decision until after the CBA." ... In the meantime, Williams said he doesn't have a gauge on what other players are planning to do if there is a lockout. The idea of going overseas was his own. But one place you probably won't find him in is Greece. "The economy is not too good in Greece right now," Williams said.

Strategy, he's not playing in Europe; not at the height of his talent. He could fit in with a number of teams but those teams have superstar talent already in place that would make it hard to add him; get my drift?

Delaney- if there's a lockout, and no season, it would make sense for the players to go overseas to make $$$.
