    Wow, the euro talent must really suck for Pargo to be the number 2 free agent over season.
    So HorrIBourousis does suck, eh?
    Thanks moron.

    All the spurs offered was half the LLE. He must REALLY suck then.
    Witness the coming of Rasho V.2

    Oh god..

    According to a Greek website, Bourousis has an 1.7milion per year, two year offer from SAS.... crossing my fingers...

    Like I have say all along. From the beginning I was trying to tell fans here even more than year ago about this.

    I find the size of the offer unlikely. The LLE is more than this (1.99 million according to Larry Coon's CBA FAQ ( http://members.cox.net/lmcoon/salarycap.htm ). You can't split the LLE, and otherwise, this would come out of the MLE. If they made an offer like this to him, I would expect the whole LLE, 1.99 $M in year one and 2.15 $M in year 2 (8% raise, max allowed).
    LLE can be split.
    Thank you for the correction; I was not aware of this. However, what is the value in this case? 1.99M - 1.7M = 0.29M left over. The absolute minimum salary is $457,588. I don't think you can combine exceptions, so what's the point? You can't use the left over bit for anything anyhow...

    I suppose it saves you enough to try a few 10 day contracts or sign someone for the vet min late in the season... But seriously, 1.7 million is just a weird number.

    European players usually have a set asking price to NBA clubs.

    You're asking what's the point for a team to pay less a player ?

    The obvious point is to spend less money. If you can get a player for $1.7M instead of $2M, I don't see why you would give him $2M.

    He dominated Yao and Scola at Olympics. You just wish he would go to Rockets. He prefers Spurs. That is why you are mad. Rockets would be dreaming of getting him now that they have only 1 center.

    Brontosaurus looks like he has some long arms but he also looks like he needs to get in better shape.

    I think he have 7-5 wingspan but I am not for sure on this. Sometimes wingspan is mentioned for European players in games but they do not list it in websites like they do with American players.

    Πρόταση για τριετές συμβόλαιο από τους Σπερς φέρεται να έχει στα χέρια του ο Γιάννης Μπουρούσης που όπως είναι γνωστός μένει ελέυθερος από τον Ολυμπιακό και βρίσκεται μπροστά σε ένα μεγάλο δίλλημα. Ελλάδα ή ΝΒΑ;
    Οι ετήσιες οικονομικές αποδοχές του θα φτάσουν το 1.7 εκατ. ευρώ, ενώ συνολικά ο παίκτης θα πάρει 12 εκατ. δολάρια αν επιλέξει το Σαν Αντόνιο.
    Provided this story isn't BS, Spurs offer is $12M/3 years.

    Also, how does he compare to Gortat and would this money be better spent on him?

    I'VE been a member here for a few months and I do read alot of posts. As you can see i rarely post myself, dont have much time. One thing I have noticed is that everyone is always bashing KBP I really dont understand why, many of you seem to start with him and 90% of the time he just keeps talking about basketball. Well in this case he seems to have been right in regards to Bourousis. If the spurs do sign him, which I hope they do, then can you leave the poor bas alone. Maybe someone could explain to me why no one likes KBP, did he have something to do with our first round exit or maybe he is the reason Scola never wore silver and black? Please let me know.

    Proposal for a three-year contract from the sperm is allegedly at the hands of John Bourousis which is known as left free from the Olympic and is facing a major dilemma.
    Ελλάδα ή ΝΒΑ;
    Greece or the NBA?
    Οι ετήσιες οικονομικές αποδοχές του θα φτάσουν το 1.7 εκατ. ευρώ, ενώ συνολικά ο παίκτης θα πάρει 12 εκατ. δολάρια αν επιλέξει το Σαν Αντόνιο.
    The annual earnings will reach 1.7 million, while overall the player will get 12 million dollars if you choose San Antonio.

    Η ομάδα του Τέξας με προπονητή τον Γκρεγκ Πόποβιτς έχει πάντα ανοιχτά τα μάτια και ενδιαφέρεται για παίκτες πέρα από το ΝΒΑ, δεν είναι τυχαίο πως έχει στην σύνθεση της αθλητές όπως οι Γάλλοι Τόνι Πάρκερ και Ίαν Μαϊνμί αλλά και οι Αργεντινοί Μανού Τζινόμπιλι και Φαμπρίτσιο Ομπέρτο.
    The team in Texas with coach Greg Popovic always open their eyes and interest for players outside the NBA, it is no coincidence that the composition has the athletes as the French Tony Parker and Ian Mainmi and Argentinian Tzinompili Manos and Fampritsio Omperto.
    Την περυσινή σεζόν μάλιστα πήραν και τα δικαιώματα του Βασίλη Σπανούλη από τους Χιούστον Ρόκετς πριν πάει ο Έλληνας γκαρντ στον Παναθηναϊκό.
    Last year's season and even won the rights Vassilis Spanoulis from the Houston rocket go before the Greek Panathinaikos garde.

    Ο Γιάννης Μπουρούσης στον Ολυμπιακό ήταν από τους πλέον χαμηλόμισθους με 500.000 ευρώ και είναι λογικό πλέον να ζητάει ένα καλύτερο συμβόλαιο.
    John Bourousis the Olympic was the most low to 500,000 euros and is now reasonable to ask for a better contract.
    Η ΚΑΕ Ολυμπιακός θέλει να κρατήσει τον 26χρονο σέντερ στον Πειραιά και θα του καταθέσει σύντομα επίσημη πρόταση.
    The KAE Olympiakos wants to keep 26chrono senter in Piraeus and will soon submit a formal proposal.
    Ο Έλληνας διεθνής όπως έχει δηλώσει θέλει να μείνει στον Ολυμπιακό αλλά θα ξεκινήσει τις διαπραγματεύσεις του με τον σύλλογο με το ποσό των 2 εκατ. ευρώ για κάθε χρόνο συνεργασίας του με την ομάδα.
    The Greek international has also said he wants to stay in the Olympic, but will begin negotiations with the club to the tune of 2 million for each year of cooperation with the group.

    Από την πλευρά της η ΚΑΕ αναμένεται να του κάνει χαμηλότερη προσφορά.
    For its part, the OEM is expected to make a lower offer.

    I can explain it simply. It happens because of articles like "Bourousis will be the Spurs savior." We came in here and said he might be a good addition, but Tim Duncan was a savior..David Robinson was a savior..Michael Jordan was a savior. This guy's never even played in the NBA...wouldn't call him a savior. He proceeded to call all Americans fools and idiots. Any time anyone disagreed with him in any way, shape or form, he would call them fools and idiots for having opinions that weren't the same as his. Then, he tries to portray himself as a greek living in Panama when he's posting from Mountain Home, Arkansas with a Comcast IP...he's a troll who enjoys insulting people...so we insult back. Now, people are saying Bourousis sucks (I'm not one of them) just to piss him off. Can't blame them..the guy's been a total asshole to some of the best posters in here (Bruno, for one).

    I don't know at all how legit is this source.
    News coming from Europe are often far from being reliable, so take it with a grain of salt.
