It is right forum. Because ALL NBA fans in this forum have insulted me and called me a liar. Once again I was proven right all along. Also now NBA forum can know this goes here. Because Spurs will be back to their old level now with adding Bourousis.
He is huge upgrade over Thomas, Oberto, Bonner.
That article is like reading the tabloids..not even sports media...no one to sign off on it. If he signs, good..but this article is basically someone saying something they heard...doesn't mean they actually offered it.
The Spurs offered me 3 years, $13 millions.
I'm mulling it over.
Here's an interesting article from Real GM - I cut and pasted some of the posts.

Thank-you.
So it would prob take an offer of around $2.5-3milllion to sign Prigioni. If both sides were interested a deal at $2.75/$3/$3.25mil w/a player option after 2 yrs would seem to be about right.
That would leave enough of the MLE to do another similar contract. Might not be what Bourousis wants,but enough to fof him to really think about it,esp for the one or two yrs.
Well I'm not sure about what Bourousis would want financially from the NBA but I know he badly wants to play in the NBA. He's the only Greek player I know of that has any interest in the NBA.
Re: Houston Rockets - Ioannis Bourousis Rumors
Everyone just thinks everything from their own respective country is gold and everyone else's is crap. U.S. basketball sucks. I watch the NBA only b/c of the rockets and barely watch other nba games at all. I like when they have the FIBA games or olympics though b/c they seem to play with more fire. Their teamwork is much better than it is over here. Take for example the pick and roll. The spurs and jazz use it a lot and hence they are year-in/year-out playoff teams. Other teams (like in U.S. bball) rely on one person's talent to win games and hence always fail in the playoffs and international play.
They need to take the handcheck out of the nba....and pussy-ass charge/flop calls out. Only call a charge if the person taking the charge gets broken ribs (sarcasm). Then the NBA can go back to it's Golden years with Bird/Jordan and real bball. It annoys me so bad that if Stern wants you to succeed (lebron/Kobe) you get a foul called if somebody breathes on you. I'm sure plenty of players could score 40-50 points if they got 20 FT's and open shots/drives b/c opposing players are scared to come close or a foul would be called.
I think the Rockets might have more interest in Prigioni than Bourassis. But both players fit the Rockets needs. Prigioni for veteran guard and Bourassis for a big backup Center for Yao.
Lies.
And this is the wrong forum.
Why do you think you don't have to follow the rules?
Prigioni would be perfect for Rockets but no way in he will sign with a team that the GM is bragging about his two point guard Brooks and Lowry. After Spanoulis situation you will never see veteran Euroleague players sign for any team unless they are THE player at the position.
Wow...and they say American players are arrogant.
lol..
Prigioni can come and at least have more playing time than Brent Barry. Lowry and Brooks are good but I'd rather see both of those guys coming off the bench. Brooks is still a turnover machine and Lowry isn't good enough to be a starter. Neither of them is starter material but Prigioni certainly is.
Prigioni as a starter and Brooks as a backup and get rid of Lowry = Rockets championship. But I do not see Prigioni signing ever to a team that has 2 point guards on the roster and where the GM brags about how great they are and will be players for many years on the team.
Especially after how Rockets treated Spanoulis. Scola would have to demand he will leave the team as free agent unless they gave Prigioni the job or something.
This is Adleman remember? This is not JVG's team anymore. The Rockets have a great chance of signing him.
interesting, how old is this guy and does he rebound well?
Wow - who is this player I have NEVER heard of? Because if you put Deron Williams or Chris Paul on the Rockets next year - they STILL won't win a le. So who really is the best PG in the world I have never heard about?
Stop with the lies KBP you ing .
He is 25 and he is the best rebounder in all of Europe.
If you don't know Prigioni you don't know basketball. Why are you even here?
Did you know that Prigioni's backup in TAU is John Lucas III? If JVG was the coach of TAU Lucas would start. JVG is a moron.
Prigioni on the Rockets would be deadly on the pick n roll with Scola... just with 15 minutes a game he'd be a solid addition...
BTW.... Bourousis>Splitter
I can't even read one of these silly names without thinking of a medical condition.
Bursitis is disgusting, like a Greek toilet.
he looks weak. I bet oberto could hold him down in the block
he moves slow and has no lift imo
