Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo reported on Sunday that Real Madrid will offer a six-year deal to Rudy Fernandez worth $4.35 million annually.
Fernandez is due $2.2 million next season and would become a restricted free agent in 12-13.


Fernandez was traded to the Mavericks on the night of the draft.
Fernandez is expected to honor the remainder of his NBA contract and then return to Spain.

Dallas only really needs anything from him for one year...and if he does well Cuban can beat that offer pretty easily.

I could definitely see him taking the offer. Not only does he want to play over there but if NBA players have to start taking big pay cuts he'll be getting paid much more with that contract, he'll be financially secure for 6 years making good money.

[CubanMustGo]

lol obsessed much??

[GB20]

i would take the offer and go to spain.

How have the Mavs lost him? Has he accepted the deal? He's only been offered a deal so nothing is done yet.

[LkrFan]

The funny part is Cubes can't negotiate a better deal to keep him due to the lockout. Besides, Rudy wouldn't get that kind of deal in the NBA so he should the money and go back home.

lol spain another broke ass country...just wait for the dominoes to fall

[ChumpDumper]

You guys need to learn how to read.

[ginobili's bald spot]

Mundo Deportivo is very biased toward Barcelona. Usually everything they write about Real Madrid is completely fabricated.

Now the NBA is truly fucked. What are they going to do without this super talent?

[Lukor]

OP is a retard. Even if Real offered Rudy a deal he didnt sign it yet so nobody has lost nothing to anybody yet. Boom.

Uh, there's a lockout on. Anyone who can go to Europe and cash will do so. Also, the reference to "honoring the remainder of his contract" is false. After year 3, you become a restricted FA, which applies only the the NBA, but you are free to leave the country and sign with FIBA. He's probably packing now.

Especially since he just found out Dirk took performance enhancing drugs. :depressed

[frodo]

rudy is a short-term plan obviously he ain't being a franchise player to build around imho. mavs traded their pick for one year's service of rudy and it was hardly a bad move, with the possibility of losing both JJB and stevenson this summer. mavs have won it and they need to continue the pursuit, they are on win-now mode now so i don't care how it works in a 5yr or 10yr plan

ChuckD with the goods. :tu

[ChumpDumper]

Uh, there's a lockout on. Anyone who can go to Europe and cash will do so.Rudy can't. He's under contract with the Mavs this season and teams like Madrid recognize those contracts.
Also, the reference to "honoring the remainder of his contract" is false. After year 3, you become a restricted FA, which applies only the the NBA, but you are free to leave the country and sign with FIBA. He's probably packing now.It's after year four.

If the NBA reaches a point where it can't play this season, then Rudy will probably be free to sign elsewhere.

[ChuckD]

Rudy can't. He's under contract with the Mavs this season and teams like Madrid recognize those contracts.It's after year four.

You are correct, sir. I was using dated CBA material.

[demosthenes247]

So much for this:

"According to a report Tuesday on the Spanish sports website Marca.com, Fernandez has decided not to accept a six-year contract offer with Real Madrid for more than $26 million, meaning he will not return to his home country this season regardless of how long the NBA lockout lasts.

The 6-foot-6 Fernandez will play out the final year of his contract with the Mavs and then, according to the report, decide where he prefers to continue his career."

[endrity]

This was a stupid initial report anyway, and it made no sense.

The contract offered was after this year, where he was going to be an FA anyway. Dallas actually knew this very well, and it made sense in what is their strategy to shed salary in order to become a player for next year's FA class.

The word around the league has been clear for a while now, that Rudy was going to get maybe one more chance, and if he didn't cut it than he was going back to Spain. So the initial report really didn't tell us anything that we didn't already know.

[Halberto]

Add this to Koolaid's growing archive of self-ownage threads.

[mavsfan1000]

Yep all we need is one year from Rudy anyways. By then, Roddy will be in full flight. :D
