    Paco Llull (Sergio Llull's father):*"The Rockets are crazy about him. When (Sergio) was over here for three days, they wanted to come and see him, but it couldn't be done because he needed those days to rest before leaving for the National Team."*Ultima HoraHOUSTON ROCKETS,*SERGIO LLULL**| *SHARE**

    What are the chances he ever comes to the nba?

    I think because he signed an extension with Real Madrid, he will not be eligible to leave until after this season. I hope he does, the boy can play.

    Would he be good backup to Lin? I really don't know much of his game but if Linn n Martin start, would lull n lamb b a great combo super subs?

    He signed an extension until 2014 for a million euros. After that, Spain will "offer him a huge enlargement (?(_)_)==D) this summer to insure that Llull will finish its sports career dressed in target".

    No he won't come to the NBA.

    The first post even gives proof of this when he refused to meet with the team that has his draft rights while they were in country. Since this is his second extension, I suspect he really doesn't think he will succeed in the NBA and is staying in Spain.

    He is a backup anyway, plenty of those in the NBA already.

    I say he will stay in Europe for the next 3+ years. Doesn't seem to have the fire or confidence to play here.

    Ese es un tema al que no hay que darle muchas vueltas, es jugador del Madrid. Otra cuestión es que en Houston vayan locos por él. Cuando estuvo aquí tres días, por Sant Joan, antes de ir con la selección, querían desplazarse a Menorca para verle, pero resultó inviable, ya que esos días eran imprescindibles para descansar antes de ir con la selección. El futuro no sabes que deparará en ese sentido, pero creo que tiene sitio en la NBA.

    He'll never come over.......the Rockets almost never have any of their Euro-stashed players actually play in the NBA
