Good chance the Spurs' pick is on the above list
I don't know who put it together. It was issued by the NBA (so I'm not even sure how accurate it is)
ERAZEM LORBEK (e-RA-zum LOR-bek) - Ljubljana, Slovenia - Bologna
UROS SLOKAR (OO-rosh SLOW-car) - Ljubljana, Slovenia - Snaidero Udine
And Smodis might come to NBA this year so 8 slovenians in NBA
But Lorbek was said that he want to stay for one more year here in Europe to improve himself befor go in NBA, we will see
The NBA one for Beno says "BAY-no OOH-dree".
Thats great!

I've never heard his name pronounced like that, and I've seen him play at least a dozen times. It might be right, but a lot of announcers are wrong.ANDREW BOGUT (BOW-goot)
