The only reason I am to be reading your stupid threads/posts is being your sig.
Ioannis Bourousis will be Spurs savior. Remember I say before here he decide he want come to NBA? After Olympics many NBA team give him contract offers. He say he want play in Spurs team though as first choice and he will come to NBA if can after season.
Now see is time he is begin establish himself with what he is able to do. He do not start play basketball I think until age 17 or 18 and he is big man also so was take him longer to develop. But in Olympics he begin to develop and play very well and now is ready to take over this year.
He is HUGE. He is list as 7-1 265 pound center but Olympiacos coach says he is really 7-1 280. He have the 7-5 wingspan. Very good athlete, very strong, excellent shot blocker and rebounder. Very good offensive game with good post moves and excellent shooter. Even very good 3 point shooter. He is not stiff at all believe me. Even Doug Collins says in Olympics how impressive he is and he says he is big man he like most off all he see for good NBA career better then Marc Gasol he say.
He is playing in better and deeper team than Tiago Splitter and he is becoming better player then him. I even say so far this year in Euroleague he is better player than Splitter is. And he is much bigger player then Splitter.
I will be glad get him off Olympiacos so PAO will not face him anymore. And he can come to Spurs and will be great center for Spurs. We will see bad year now for Spurs but they need be smart about next year. Bourousis want play for them as starting center and they need be very smart and grab him fast. He is very capable.
PG Parker
SG Manu
SF Bowen
PF Duncan
C Bourousis
Can be scary good lineup for next year to win champions of NBA again. Is OK Spurs fans will be hope again next year if Spurs is smart and grab this Greek giant that wants come play with them.

I have my friend make video clip for him in youtube since all idiots here keep say he is a joke and a scrub and cannot play in NBA. I keep try tell everyone here he is free agent and he is one Spurs need to get.
Forget Splitter. Bourousis is available and is even more talented player.

LOL !! yeah, he's my favorite poster... sig-wise....The only reason I am to be reading your stupid threads/posts is being your sig.
Spurs fans is fools. He is better than Splitter.
no sig = no love
now get to steppin comcast
Is this him? Why did he spit in that guy's ear?
Yes is him.
This is typical of Olympiacos players.
His game is whack. It won't translate to the NBA.
lol idiot. This player is becoming better and better. he is already better than most NBA starters at center position. IMO for sure better than Kaman already.
Don't act like you don't understand the joke. Either way, you are the idiot.
A 23-year old center who only started playing organized basketball 5 years ago after giving up on his career as a swimmer, Yiannis Bouroussis made serious enough strides this past season to earn himself a rightful spot on this list—one that he probably won’t be relinquishing anytime soon until he makes his way over.
A legit 7-footer with a huge frame and a very nice wingspan, Bouroussis looks the part and then some. And while he is not a spectacular athlete by any stretch, particularly in the way he gets off the floor to finish around the basket, he moves well enough and is fluid and coordinated to the point that this won’t be what’s holding him back either.
Skill-wise, Bouroussis is intriguing as well. He has a beautiful looking flat-footed stroke with range that extends past the European 3-point line, and the touch to punish any rival that dares leave him open from there. His quick release combined with his size establish him as a fantastic option to space the floor for his team from the perimeter, and he’s talented enough to present himself as a pick and pop threat from mid-range as well.
Bouroussis’ bread and butter this year lied in his ability to play the pick and roll, though. Whether setting the pick himself and rolling to the hoop or coming off a secondary screen as the cutter following one of his guards forays into the paint, he established himself as an incredibly reliable presence in the paint thanks to his fantastic hands and very sure touch around the hoop. His strength helped him here as well, as he can take contact and finish around the hoop fairly well thanks to his great frame.
He just signed a four year contract with Olimpiacos last year according to his agent Costas Papadakis of First Class Management, and only has an NBA out clause in 2009. Papadakis says that as many as ten teams have regardless expressed interest, and that Bouroussis “does have a desire to play in the NBA, like all players.” In his opinion he will need at least one more year in Greece, since he still is very far from reaching his full potential as a player due to the fact that he started playing the game much later than most, at age 18. But, as Papadakis explained, “when the time is correct, he’ll surely be interested.”
This is from draftexpress. Believe me he is now this year coming on.
We don't need this guy
We already have a savior

Splitter, and Bourousis, or whatever his name is.
He is MUCH superior to Mahinmi. Are you crazy?
He was talking about Jesus, idiot.
We have to play him at SG and bring Manu off the bench. Manu won't pass to Jesus cuz he can't see him there.
i wonder how the last big-name euro center with a 3 point shot turned out![]()
Rockets GM would be begging on knees to get this Bourousis. He is VERY good.
KBP can be annoying, but considering how desperate our big man situation is, and that we likely won't have our first rounder this year, I don't see the problem with looking around for answers.
Anyone else know anything about him?
I know he uses Comcast and pretends to be from Greece.
But seriously, anyone know anything about Bourousis?
Is that time of the week already?
By that time I mean the praise-a-random-greek-player day.
10 NBA teams have offer him MLE contract this summer. Doug Collins says he is better then Marc Gasol. He has opt out clause for zero buyout at end of year. He says Spurs is at top of his list. This all you need know.
No more overseas players please. I just dont like the fact that as soon as the season is over. Boom, there they go off to play for their countries. When you have to many of them on your roster your just asking for trouble. I dont want to see our roster try and beat each other during world or olympic championships. I just want them to play together for San Antonio Championships. There is nothing to gain when they play after our season is over. Nothing at all.
