    I believe Llull has a 6-1 assist to turnover ratio in Europe. So no, not Lin part deux.

    He is ok for the MLE. Nothing more than that. I doubt if he will come to the NBA.

    watched the game today.


    llull didn't have the greatest of games. but he played within himself. didn't try to force much (hoisted some shots late in the clock). didn't play a whole bunch of minutes as the lineup with rodriguez and carroll worked really well.

    he is more of a sg than a pg but is very comfortable bringing the ball up the court. i think he would be a great fit next to harden and the NBA game in general.

    I have a feeling Llull's going to come to Houston and that we're going to be glad he did. The stars are aligned. Of course, I've been wrong before.

    Sure, but I think most experts that year figured Clark Gable was a shoe in to win the Oscar. Nobody figured that Victor McLaglen would win for the Informer. You should stop beating yourself up about that bad guess. It's been 80 years!

    Hearing Llull after the game, I think that next year he will be in Houston or, at least, he is negotiating to go.

    The title is "Llull, a flavored farewell MVP".
    Felipe Reyes (captain) was continually looking for Llull to offered him the cup like a farewell gesture.
    Llull said " the NBA is there, but now I want to rest.I don´t know when I will take the decision, I have not received any call from Houston"

    If Lull think that he will stay , he would said it, so I think that Llull is very close to go to Houston.

    if we get him, better get another solid PG as backup that can start...remember that he has national team obligations...wear and tear can take toll on him

    Appreciate your input! It's always good to have sources of information.

    And for the haters (miggue, you'll learn this word quickly if you're going to be on this board a lot), not that Llull is here yet, but, you know, give him a g.d. chance, hmn? No one's claiming we're getting Chris Paul. But I don't think he's gonna be Jordan Farmar, either.

    Rumours in Spain keep talking about a $24M offer (not MLE).
    Does the recent T-Jones rumour strengthen that scenario?
