HAHA, they're damaging their own league if they want to overpay these guys that much.
Aggie is the man
They should make a rule that once you play in the NBA, and you decide to leave to play for a foreign team, you will incur a lifetime ban form playing in the NBA again. That should not include the olympics. That will discorage players from jumping ship. The NBA, despite it's shortcomings, is the best in the world.
You sire are an
Overseas? Are the Honduran leagues signing them, too?
lifestyle in europe is WAY mroe high profile than in the US... it seems your trip to Honduras gave you a VERY limited view of what it looks like outside the US...
The Europeans team choice is too easy
A Player who proved that he can play in the NBA, obviously don´t need to prove anything more, he can play in FIBA or Europe
The famous "Don´t proven anything in the NBA" is going to die, if one player show that he can play in Europe vs Great NBA players, they nor need to prove anything in the NBA before to sign a contract in the NBA
I don't want to say that there's more at work here, but you can't spell "Luis Scola" without CIA. Yao busts his foot, Landry's in talks to go to Spain, and T-Mac "disapears" in the playoffs. Laugh at me now, but by the year's end Rafer Alston will be leading an amphibious assault on Cuba and Mutombo will be installed as the new strong man back in his home country.
i dont think Landry worths that
73 million. what did you think?
other than Ducks Arnold went overseas. at least once.ducks went to Cambodia after Honduras. He also moved up from the machete.

Yes, yes I do.
Oh good, more overseas travel.
cool...can you find me some links to support this?
one word for TAU
le go!!!
If the Chinese shoe company Anta gets involved and gives Landry a big endoresement deal it'll be game over for TAU. However, this is probably the only way to beat the TAU offer.
nice front court of Splitter + Landry... they would be very compe ive...
lol this is so stupid. First is 2 years ago most these big clubs almost double budget since then. Also these is EUROS not dollars and is AFTER TAXES. TAU have 20 millions euros ($32 millions) budget last year for basketball team.
Is 25 millions euros ($40 millions) this year. Is crazy how stupid US media is about European sports. If they believe these figures they is even dumber than fans in Rockets board like Sam Fisher.
dude I have been to japan and other countries
lifestyle in europe is WAY mroe high profile than in the US... it seems your trip to Honduras gave you a VERY limited view of what it looks like outside the US...
it is still not where you have grown up
form what i can read from you... you haven;t traveled a whole lot.. and i'm afraid not even within your own country either...
You've been to other countries? Do tell.
First of all, with no other revenue streams coming in whatsoever, those values are worth at least 150% of what they were then based on the value of the dollar vs. the Euro.
If you just had $10 million worth of Euros back then and just put them in your mattress, they are now worth $16 million now.
