Stop your JEW LIES! lol
Angelopoulos the owner of Olympiacos BC has offered contracts to Ben Gordon and Ron Artest. Contracts are larger than Childress contract.
Childress gets 3 years $20 million net (after all taxes and agent fees are paid) = to 3 years $40 million NBA contract
Gordon and Artest were offered 3 years $25 million (after all taxes and agent fees are paid) = to 3 years $50 million NBA contract
So basically they have both been offered something like max NBA contract in base pay. Like $16.67 million per year in the NBA. Remember NBA contracts are before taxes and agent fees are paid.
Also all the bonus pays Childress has as options were also offered to them. Villa on the sea, Volvo sports car, chauffeur, cook, butler, maid, all of them paid for by club and also part of team Nike shoe partnership and Volvo car partnership endorsements money.
Also Olympiacos owner has made special request to the Greek League and paid money to have new rule where league will allow clubs to have 3 American players on the roster. Rule has been that Greek clubs can only have 2 Americans on the roster.
The owner is pushing for new rule and league says it should come so this way Olympiacos could sign Artest and Gordon and still keep Childress because new rule would allow 3 Americans in the team.
If they cannot get Artest or Gordon the next player to be offered a contract is supposed to be Anthony Parker or Lamar Odom.
Why are you such an a-hole to me always? Why do you not do this to any other poster here? From now on you say anything I am posting a link on another site and saying you stole it.
And before you post your BS on another forum, you should know that Gordon has also the British nationality.
Olympiacos has also Lynn Greer idiot.
That would not be a serious offer for Artest as he's making 8.5 M per year as it is.
Max contract plus Nike and Volvo contract? What? You think he can get max contract from any NBA club?
China Peak Shoe Contract and 3 million extra that would be fair for Ron-Ron.
Peak Shoe contract would be worth more than the Nike Contract. There are like what? 1.6 Billion people in China?
So he will get like $16.7 million a year in Olympiacos offer and this is not a serious offer to him? They should never even offer such amount for him. It is way way too much and you think it not a serious offer?
Scola and Hayes had $5 million shoe contracts. But Childress gets more than this from Nike and Volvo. It is part of club partners with Olympiacos itself. And max NBA contract is much more than $11.5 millions. Anyway they are crazy to even offer him this.
Gordon is different story I think he can help them a lot.
Basically, the offers would be the same and Artest has already stated his desire is to rejoin the Rockets and Morey has stated it's a priority to resign him.
Rockets 2009 Salaries coming off the books.
Artest 7.4 million
Francis 2.6 million
Jackie Butler 2.5 million
Justin Reed 1.5 million
Deke .8 million
Head 1.9 million
Von Wafer .8 million
Lucas .5 million
Expirings
T-Mac 22.3 million
Cook 3.5 million
Scola 3.4 million
Barry 2 million
I think it's safe to say we can give a good salary boost to Artest.
Gordon sucks
How is MAX NBA contract plus shoe and car deals same as $11.5 millions? It is almost twice as much. Anyway Rockets are also overpaying if they give him that much.
Gordon's offense is much better than Artest's offense. Please do not talk nonsense. Artest's defense is not even needed in Olympiacos. They have Vasilopoulos and Pelekanos who maybe are best wing defenders in Europe along with Diamantidis. There is no reason to even sign him for Olympiacos.
I could actually see Gordon making the jump if he doesn't get the money he feels he deserves in the states. Not Artest though.
LMAO at comparing any perimeter defenders in europe to artest
Vasilopoulos > Artest in defense. Vasilopoulos is as good as Battier in defense. LMFAO at your severe and disturbing lack of basketball knowledge.
seriously your like a ing annoying as mosquito. just go away. im sure there are nice players in europe but any league that thinks josh childress deserves a franchise player type salary is a joke. if vasoline is so damn good, why doesnt he come join the best league in the world? hes a good defender against who? artest and battier have to play against kobe, lebron, wade, melo, etc.......THE BEST IN THE WORLD. how the are you gonna compare the compe ion they face here vs the pussies they face in europe? STFU already
Are you really this stupid? Childress is consider biggest bust in history of European basketball. He is maybe the 6-8 best player on his own team. STFU if all you can talk is false nonsense.
I don't think any team is going to offer him what they can offer him in Europe. Ben Gordon is a realistic possibility. Artest, I don't think it's going to happen. I'm not saying it can't happen, I'm saying it won't happen.
read my in post re . ENGLISH! i said any league that gives childress (implied as a ty player not deserving that type of money) superstar type money is a joke. everyone and their moms knew he couldnt play here thats why he didnt get a contract as nearly as lucrative as that! no hes a bust, we all knew he would be. but your precious league across the pond thought otherwise
........waiting for your response to the compe ion comparison that artest and battier have to face compared to what vasoline faces
They are crazy to even offer to Artest. Greek fans and Artest does not mix together.
Why? Do the Greek fans like to throw beer on the opposing teams players?![]()
