I canīt believe soem here are argueing this, Splitter would be one of the best bigs if not the best in this years draft if he had no contract in europe entering this draft.
You are talking about a Top2 C in europe, players that made that cut are Bargnani, Scola, the Gasol brothers.
Marcin Gortat, being bigger, didnīt have the accomplishments Splitter had in Europe. The problem is that he is brazilian meaning he is not very commited to groups, but in his defense he is one of the few brazilian players that have shown commitment in the Fiba americas championships.
I donīt think the Spurs are really aware of the player they have, yes, he is not Luis Scola, nor half of what he has been on europe, yet, having half Scola for 3 millions wouldnīt be bad.
I bet Houston will happily give you their 14th pick for him.
