Again we are talking different issues here though. You can't compare really small clubs from really crappy leagues like this. An Italy A team that...
Big European clubs are extremely thorough in player scouting and evaluation. They don't give contracts to American players unless they believe...
That's 5 points and 5 rebounds in the French league. Euroleague is the best league in Europe, French league is easily one of the very worst, maybe...
Every division 1 team in Italy would be a guaranteed contract. That agent is some idiot who doesn't know what he is talking about. Let's try to...
Brent has the same exact calf injury that ended Jon's career. i just hope this isn't another signing of an old and already done player by the Rockets.
If a team does not pay its players it must do so or is banned from its domestic league and from all European cups. The team can either declare...
There are plenty of smaller Italian league clubs in division 1 that could sign him as a backup PG and pay him 300k. The main thing was when they...
That's like saying "the only guarantee with pro basketball contracts in the USA is that you're guaranteed not to get all the money you're...
Luther Head sucks but I think Carney is setting the sights too low. It would be just like getting Kirk Snyder back to solve the backup SG issue....
That article has a lot of loop holes. You can't view European basketball like you view the NBA. It's completely different. You have 8-10 really...
Lior Eliyahu? You can't be serious. He was a backup last year and averaged 3.8 points per game in the Euroleague. He's not even close to NBA ready.
Not exactly. if he gos to a team good enough to pay 800K they are in a much higher level than NCAA and therefore very small chance he ever sees...
There is a big difference between can we win a title and will we win a title? Can we win a title with this roster? It's possible. Will we...
The NBA MLE came in at about $5.5 million so if Siskauskas took it for 3 years then he would be at a $1 million pay cut from what he currently...
Just about every team of any significance in Europe uses English as the primary language. Most of the players and the coaches themselves are...
JR Holden isn't any better than Rafer is, better shooter maybe. It's no upgrade. Sure CSKA won 2 Euroleague championships in 3 years and the other...
I just hope Yao doesn't get hurt.
I don't think that would solve the PG issue for the Rockets. Players like Papaloukas and Siskauskas are legitimately considered superstars at...
Hayes is a good 10th man on a contending team. He's nothing more than that. But I guess he has a really die hard fan base judging by a lot of...
Well maybe for the minimum, possibly even the LLE. Anything more than that hell no. Also, the first time he started crap I would release him, even...
