Ah yes, point taken because the Spurs always tell the media the truth about player personnel decisions. Do you really believe that?
It probably does in Popovich's intentions.
If the idea is to show how y and arrogant Spanoulis is, it is totally misplaced.
I am sure the greek public will LOVE this Spanoulis at ude.

Is that a hint? I hope so...
I'm happy with BB as the third PG, although it would be nice to bring in a youngster to learn from TP and JV.
Hmm. Something tells me that if the guy who flew to Slovenia to sign Rasho thought a guy was going to be valuable to the team, he would at least have spoken to him on the phone.
I fed his answer into my CIA Pop Super Decoder Ring, and it came out "Salary Dump"
What he said.
Exactly X 2.
If Pop really wanted the guy, he would have at least talked to him. Not talking to him tells me Pop had no interest in him. , Pop called Jacque Vaughn personally last year the minute free agency opened. He flew him in and met with Vaughn the next day. And like OV said, Pop traversed the Slovenian mountains to get Rasho to sign. Pop would have at least picked up the phone if he wanted V-Span at all.
This actually tells me that there was no interest. I was unsure really but Pop not putting any effort into it at all pretty much puts to bed that the trade was anything other than a salary dump.
It also puts to bed the worries also of Scola being that great a player.
If he was "that great" wouldn't have Pop put in a huge effort to keep him?
I refuse to believe any of this until I get the scoop from Kill Bill Pana.
I guess that means Rasho is a hall of famer based on the 'Pop's efforts to sign compared to greatness of player' ratio
I smell an Anti Spanoulis Rockets poster from Clutchfans. Really is there any reason to refer to the guy this way? You guys are the same ones who could easily refer to Avery Johnson as Avery Big Johnson for coaching the Spurs worst enemy and spouting off and trash talking ever chance we get. But nooo..
Wouldn't "Big Johnson" be a compliment?
We called him little when we liked him.
little general.
yeah..
Way to just pull that out of left field.I guess that means Rasho is a hall of famer based on the 'Pop's efforts to sign compared to greatness of player' ratio
I must say "What is no alex."
As for Pop, I could believe that he was telling the truth in that interview or flat out lying to save himself the ass pain of describing any talks or negotiations he may have had with Vaselinas or his agent to some head homer Greek reporter who would just end up exaggerating the living out of it.
How do we know Pop didn't try to talk to Vaginis...and couldn't get past the agent?
Vaginis didn't want to play here....are you guys doubting that?
Beno sucks....are ya'll also doubting that?
Vaginis is better than Beno(well he's more talented, but probably more of a pussy)...are you doubting that as well?
Remember it already be reportes that Parker ask Spanoulis please stay and have say he talks to Spurs. He tell Popovich that Spanoulis best point guard he plays in international. Remember Spanoulis even since youth days have always outscore Parker.
Lindsey main person of Rockets alongs with Dawson wants draft Spanoulis. Lindsey have says before Spanoulis can be as good as Parker if have right chance. Spurs did want Spanoulis to stay. Popovich have tell Billy this, even if he say he not talks to him he have tell Billy throughs Buford and Lindsey and Parker.
This why Parker have dinner with Billy. You guy need stop beliving thing said by Van Gundy or crazy Rocket fan. Most Rocket fan believe thing said only by Van Gundy and Rocket reporter only say what make Van Gundy looks good. All real Rocket fan know this. Van Gundy just complete insane coach and verry poor coach. Some fan here actual even believe crap he know how to coach just because he have says so much himself "I good coach" and some fan and stupid reporter reapets this.
Rocket Gm not and Lindsey not even talk to Van Gundy rhis reportes last year. Main reason because he not play Spanoulis.
And for person keep saying Spanoulis bench player in Greece, like it matter? Papaloukas come off bench to and he Euroleague MVP.
Giannakis the national team coach say Spanoulis is best Greek player and he is got to guy of team first option on the offense. Coach Obradovic say Spanouis is best player of Panathinaikos during team training and practice and is to be main scorer first option of team.
He willing to come off bench so some other player can get more minute but all some fan can say is "he not even start in Greece"![]()
I guess player he come off bench for like say Hatzivrettas should be consider superstar in Europe and main player of national team then?

Vaginis is a bum.
He might be the go-to-guy in Greece but not in the NBA. He would probably be a mediocre player at best in NBA. so he should be smart enough to know his role as a backup.
He never complain about being backup he complain about 51 DNPCD for no reason after he promise 10 minute every game in contract. You explain why Lucas get his minute when Lucas midget two guard that is ball hog only and not even then able to shoot 3? Or why coach Van Gundy always say "player play for me base on defense" when everyone know Lucas one of worst defender in NBA and Spanoulis is good defender? Maybe you explain crazy action of Van Gundy?
Playing time is not guaranteed in NBA contracts.
Every of thing I say so far have later come true even report in US press even thoughs all people call me "liar" before they have to eat words of that they speak after sees it was true. But I am "liar" on he was promise play time![]()
