[Kori Ellis]

Anyone (maybe someone French) know anything about this guy?

[Buddy Holly]

Is he on the Spurs summer roster?

[Mr. Body]

... and what about Maceo Baston?

[ChumpDumper]

I think his duties as Secretary General might keep him from playing a full schedule.

[Bruno]

Great defender, good rebounder, huge wingspan, very raw.

I know that he try to get a nba contract for next year.
Word is that he will only stay if he get a guaranteed contract.

[Mr. Body]

Alain Koffi: scouting report says he has a "learning curb", not a "learning curve."

Doesn't sound good. :angel

I heard that he was here recently working out for the Spurs. That's why I asked.

Thanks.

[Bruno]

He gets too a big offer from CSKA Moskow in january and he turned it down.

If you want some video from him, Some should be available on Le Mans website (his french team).

Rasheed Wallace?

[Buddy Holly]

Is he only a power forward or can he play 3?

[SPARKY]

How long until someone claims future superstardom for him?

[ChumpDumper]

Looks nice. Even has a little jumper.

Won't make anyone forget Reggie Evans....

[Buddy Holly]

This kid can shot and defend.

[Kori Ellis]

Is he only a power forward or can he play 3?

Don't know. Scouting report says he can defend perimeter guys. He might be the athletic 3/4 type if he makes the NBA.

I know absolutely nothing about him. I just heard he worked out for 3 NBA teams - the Spurs being one of them.

[Bruno]

There are game summarie on Le Mans website.

You should find a lot of action of Koffi in this one (22 points, 7 rebounds, 3 blocks) :
high quality (http://www.msb.fr/videos/2414.mpg)
low quality (http://www.msb.fr/videos/2413.wmv)

[Mr. Body]

Looks like he has some nice tools and a soft touch, as raw as he is...

And 'Le Contre' for blocked shots: I like.

[ChumpDumper]

I didn't see any three pointers in his stats, so I'd say PF for now. Looks athletic enough to be a serviceable tweener if he works on his shot.

[Bruno]

In this one too, there should be a lot of Koffi :
high quality (http://www.msb.fr/videos/2542.mpg)
low quality (http://www.msb.fr/videos/2541.wmv)

[Das Texan]

He coudl be worth a nice lil contract from the Spurs.


Bring him over, keep him in camp and then send him up to Austin to get some PT in. He has some nice skills if they can only be developed.

[SlovenianGuy]

He plays 5 in Le Mans.

Who are the other two teams and was it pre draft or after?

[Bruno]

He is a PF and has no perimeter skills.

[Obstructed_View]

So are those dudes really really big or is that a nine foot rim?

[ChumpDumper]

He is a PF and has no perimeter skills.Notice I said tweener.

[Buddy Holly]

So are those dudes really really big or is that a nine foot rim?

Perspective.

[Kori Ellis]

Who are the other two teams and was it pre draft or after?

I'd rather not say and after.

[Buddy Holly]

They really should sign him. He looks like he has tremendous upside.

Imagine in three-four seasons, having three french men in the starting lineup. :lol

[Bruno]

He plays 5 in Le Mans.


He plays PF and C with le Mans this year (it depends on who was the second big playing with him).

[Bruno]

My bad, he gets an offer from Dynamo Moscow not cska Moscow :
$650k for his former team (Le Mans) and $1.9M for Koffi.

[Mr. Body]

Wow, that's a lot of money for the dude, more than the Spurs likely offer. $1.9M buys a lot of Mob protection in Moscow.

[ChumpDumper]

My bad, he gets an offer from Dynamo Moscow not cska Moscow :
$650k for his former team (Le Mans) and $1.9M for Koffi.Per year or over how many years?

[Bruno]

Per year or over how many years?

It was a signing bonus. I don't know what was the length of the contract or his salary (don't know too if it was released).

[NorCal510]

i like the black frenchmen bring his ass over mikael pietrus right hure

[SPARKY]

So is Kofi Annan a Hall of Famer yet or what?

[Spurologist]

Anyone (maybe someone French) know anything about this guy?

http://www.draftexpress.com/viewprofile.php?p=300

WOW!!!!

The bar is really set high for this guy.

His "best case scenario" for him the nba is Obinna Ekeze. Truly astonishing.

[Kori Ellis]

He's playing on the Nuggets summer league team in Vegas.

[Kori Ellis]

By the way, for anyone who is interested in Fizer, he's on the Hornets summer team.
