I'm no .
They have a 30 million euros budget. Higher than budget of Barca and PAO. It does not really matter that they cut their budget. Actually their budget cuts was hardly even basketball players related. They had for example a private leer jet for team flights. They stopped using it and used commercial flights to save money.
They let Messina go. They let players that cost a lot and were not playing go. Really they have just as expensive rotation as they did last season.
son will it be required in Manu's 12.8 million NET contract to also stick around after games to help cleanup the bleachers in the gyms?
No. This is what it looks like during games.
I bet it still looks like that during games too
The Houston Rockets arena is half that full during games.
I guess you have bad eye sight. There is no "bleachers" in those "gyms".
RC, you know what must be done when foreign agents visit Manu...
Why doesn't KPB never get the memo that nobody gives a lol
Who gives a about that lame ass stage, nobody wants to go to europe
Getafe Coach Michel Tips Real Madrid For Primera Liga Glory
Geta boss feels los Merengues are favourites...

Getafe coach Michel has declared that he expects Real Madrid to win the Primera Liga and noted that los Merengues have an advantage over champions Barcelona as the Blaugrana must still visit the Bernabeu.
"I think that they're the hot favourite. It's up to them and also their arch rival Barcelona has to come to the Bernabeu," he told AS.
"Maybe it will be a much closer game than we saw last year. For there are many differences between now and 10 April [Madrid 2-6 Barcelona]. Real Madrid will have to put all pride, all the capacity it has, because they need to win the league."
Geta host Madrid on Thursday and Michel says his side must be at their very best if they are to take three points from los Blancos.
"It takes many things besides what we bring as a modest team like concentration and hope. It takes skill, at the maximum level, and also displaying a game that prevents them from doing things their way. If we can provide a good level of difficulty we can stop Madrid," he declared.
Manu isn't leaving the NBA anytime soon. He's the ultimate compe or and there's no better challenge than playing against the world's top athletes.
You think there's no difference suiting up to play against Kobe, Wade or Durant, than Jaktovis Sisuliskis?
He already left money on the table when he left Europe to come play in the NBA. And the way he's been playing lately, he should have no problem getting a multi-year contract worth somewhere in the area of $10 million/year playing for a contender.
Manu is on the decline. But he still has gas left in the tank and he can be a very effective piece for a contending team.
Manu in Europe = Championship
Absolutely.
All the championship contenders are well over the cap. He could get 10M/yr from a team with cap space or take the MLE from a contender, but top money while playing for a championship contender isn't in the cards. His best combination of money and team success will still probably be with the Spurs.
If that is true and Scola is in a contract year, that would mean Scola would be going over there too right? But Scola is due a big pay raise.
He only won one Euroleague before when he was in Europe. Euroleague is a very serious league. One player does not = a championship. Not even Kobe or LeBron would assure a championship.
I think Real Madrid would have good chance with their team now (which is one of the better ones already in Europe) with add Manu. But for sure they would have much compe ion and I do not think would even be favorites.
I am very interest in what happen with them this summer because the latest rumor is they want Manu and Spanoulis. My two favorite players and I would love to see such back court.
The only team I hear that is want try to get Scola is Panathinaikos. I do not see him leave the NBA because I think Rockets should realize he is worth a lot by now. I think Scola should get bigger contract in NBA than Manu.
Yes they would.
Thanks for conceding that they indeed cut their budget.Keep paying attention and you may actually learn something about European baskebtall. Btw, they let a guy called Erazem Lorbek walk.
No they would not. There is pure zone defense in Euroleague. LeBron would take half the season just to adjust.
I remember every American in this forum guarantee Childress would average 30, win MVP and win Euroleague.
You don't know anything about it. You say Rubio is best point guard in Europe. This is pure bull .Thanks for conceding that they indeed cut their budget.
Sure it's in the cards. He can sign a deal with a non-contender, then get traded to a contender for expirings/picks/money... The only limit really is the 3 year contract length...

Real Madrid preparing a bid for Manu Ginobili
Real's coach Ettore Messina is looking to add another top quality player in his quest to win Euroleague le with the Spanish giants. San Antonio Spurs Argentinian star Manu Ginobili could be wearing the colours of Real Madrid next season. Spanish journalist Ramon Trecet confirmed the rumours about the interest of Los Blancos in bringing 32-year-old veteran on his Twitter account.
Ginobili was 2001 Euroleague champion with Kinder Bologna who was coached by Ettore Messina at the time. Two years later Ginobili went to NBA where he became one of the key players at San Antonio Spurs. During seven seasons in San Antonio Ginobili won three NBA les.
Individually best season in NBA for Ginobili was in 2007-2008 when he averaged 19.5 points. This season Manu averages 15.3 points and 4.8 assists per game for the Spurs.
They can't play in the Astrodome. That place is scheduled for demolition soon.
They can prepare whatever they want. Manu won't leave the NBA. He is a compe or and as long he plays on such a high level he'll compete with the best players in the world. Perhaps when he's 37 he'll leave for a contract in Europe.
Yeah, that's saying the same thing.
Really? http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=3497994
This is so stupid and is nonsense. Any European club that is pay million dollar contracts the contracts are all guaranteed. And you think those are only rich clubs in Europe?
So Fener, Efes, Khimki are poor clubs? You are say that even clubs like Malaga, Baskonia, Macabbi, Siena do not pay their players? Please keep the ridiculous nonsense out of this thread.
This is supposed to be a serious thread and there is no place for the stupid lies and crap here.
http://thehoop.blogspot.com/2009/05/...om-dynamo.htmlBecause of unfulfilled obligations by the club, Boki terminated the contract with Dynamo Moscow and on May 18th become a free agent.
