    NBA is trash. There is 6th string guard on club team that play on island of Zaknythos -- is smallest Greek place I can think about -- who make Kobe Bryant look like Alfrederick Hughes or something. There is also 7th string forward on club team in Kastellorizo (very small place) that make Lebron James look like Luke Walton. Is that bad.

    Bourousis do right thing to stay in as and play in best league in world. Anyone with brain know this.

    Edit: Oops -- forgot to add a grammatically-correct paragraph in which I fall out of character and reveal that I'm not really Greek . . . .
    You also forgot to say "stupid Americans don't understand basketball" but pretty dead on otherwise

    Huh. Now Yahoo Sports is claiming it as well...

    Spurs after Greek center

    By Mark Miller
    Some NBA players are accepting bigger bucks to go play in Europe. Some European players are accepting the challenge of playing in the NBA.
    The San Antonio Spurs appear to have one of the latter about to come onboard, according to Interbasket. The rumor is that San Antonio has offered a four-year deal to Greek 7', 280-pound center Ioannis Bourousis.


    Bourousis averaged 12.5 points and 7.4 rebounds in 22 games with Olympiakos Piraeus recently. He also was named MVP of the 2009 Greek All-Star Game.

    The "about to come onboard" part is what baffles me. I thought this dude already signed on the dotted line with Olympiacos Piraeus a couple of months back. Weird...unless this is just a magnificent trolling effort.

    Mark Miller should know better. As has been said, he signed with Olympiakos and the link Mark uses at Interbasket is this http://www.interbasket.net/news/2009...-to-nba-spurs/

    Note the 06/06/09 date in the url

    I'm sure Interbasket wouldn't have posted an article from 3 months ago so it would appear that Duncan2177 started this mess all by himself.

    Recent reports say that Greek center Ioannis Bourousis has been offered a four-year contract with the San Antonio Spurs.

    It comes as no surprise as the 7-0, 280lbs center has been making waves as of late. Most recently Ioannis averaged 12.5 points and 7.4 rebounds in 22 games with his Euroleague club Olympiakos Piraeus. The hulking center made his first All-Euroleague team and was named MVP of the 2009 Greek all-star game.

    And before the ULEB, Bourousis played well in the 2008 Summer Olympics for the Greek National Team. In six Olympic games with as, Boroussis averaged 11.7 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 1.0 steal filling in for Lazaros Papadopolous and underachieving Sofoklis Schortsianitis.

    Apparently it’s just not the Spurs that is after the 25-year old pivot, Gazzetta.gr is also saying that both the Memphis Grizzlies and Cleveland Cavs are interested in Bourousis.

    If the Memphis and Cleveland rumors have any truth, Bourousis will have to compete with international centers in both situations. In Cleveland, he’ll battle with Zydrunas Ilgauskas of Lithuania and with Anderson Varejao of Brazil.

    In Memphis, he would be a battle of four international centers vying for a roster spot come the 2009-2010 season. Including Bourousis, there is Marc Gasol (Spain), Darko Milicic (Serbia), and Hamed Haddadi (Iran).

    Edit: We should note that this is a rumor and we are aware that reports like this can be untrustworthy, especially coming from the Greek press. In the past, representatives have used reports of NBA contracts as a leverage in negotiation with their Euroleague clubs.

    A Note on These Bourousis Rumors

    Yahoo!, Sports Illustrated, and HoopsHype are reporting that the Spurs may have offered Olympiakos’ Ioannis Bourousis a four-year deal. Their reports all cite an Interbasket article where not only San Antonio but also Cleveland and Memphis are listed as potential suitors. Some of our commenters have begun picking up on the rumors as well.

    So why exactly have Tim and I chosen not to comment on this most recent round of Bourousis speculation?

    Because, if you look closely at the Interbasket article linked above, you’ll notice that it was not published recently but on June 6th, right around the time that we were covering the same issue extensively. This is not a new set of Bourousis rumors. It is the original rumor, which was firmly put to rest when Bourousis resigned with Olympiakos, being rehashed.

    During the summer we covered the Bourousis speculation from several angles. In May we identified him as a potential target. In June, we discussed not only the financial details of a potential signing but also the hidden value of targeting a player like Bourousis. And we concluded our coverage when Bourousis chose to stay in Greece. Feel free to look back at some of our reporting if you have the time.

    ^ LIES! American propaganda Jew s . This guy is racist against all Greeks. Bourousis tell me that he always want to play with Spurs. It is dream come true. Pop tell him that he start for the Spurs this season.

    Ignorant NBA fans know nothing about Greeks. I talk to all Greek players personally.

    WTF

    ST can be scary sometimes. A poster starts a thread with an old article and Yahoo, Sports Illustrated and HoopsHype have taken it as fact?

    Wow.

    In Google news, the article posted in the first post appeared as written on Sept 15 :
    http://news.google.com/news/search?n...=all&scoring=n

    I guess that's why he was posted on ST and why yahoo thinks it's a new rumor.
