I love this guy's game. I would love to snag him up.

But as Bruno has stated, hes a Catalonian caught in Barcelona's powerful net. Playing for the hometown crowds in one of the most successful Euro clubs out there, I'm not sure if the NBA appeals - or if we'd even be able to remove him if both sides were willing.

While the 1st might be out of question, I wouldn't mind acquiring a middle second rounder to scoop him up just in case. His talent warrants that at least.

I would love the Spurs to get this guy with the 59th pick, but like the previous poster stated it would be hard to get him out of Europe, but he is a talented offensive player, and improving defensive player, low risk high reward player and still young to stash for a year.

Rabaseda has worked out for Cavs, Pistons, Rockets, Thunder, Spurs and Bulls.

The perfect 2nd round draft and stash behind Bojan, if spurs decide to go international...one of the best shooters and guards in Spain...a offensive machine and defense is improving
