It's up now. Thanks for the link, man.
I hope he will play for us next season
I watched the Splitter minutes from the posted link above in the earlier post. I love the man's pick n roll inside on offense he's in my opinion exceptionally quick in that regard and reminds me of duncan when he was younger sliding in to the paint. He's shot inside though looks awkward looking but something that would be effective in the NBA level. He has a quick release in the post. His defense though didn't look amazing except when he was out on the perimeter he had quick feet playing out on the perimeter inside on rebounding he doesn't seem to get in proper position at times and for a guy with his length you would think he could pull more rebounds, but this is one game but I like what I saw from this guy. And he would be an improvement in our back court if we brought him over. From what I've read in the past from other posters that have followed him better than I
also would like to add, he look good with his back to the rim on offense and threw a few nice passes in the post.

Did you guys no that last year he lost a younger sister to luekemia. Maybe thats why the Spurs didn't really go after him.......Its been a year and a half.......I bet he's coming.
The factoid about the value of the Euro vs. Dollar can be important in whether Splitter --or any other Euro for that matter--decides to try the NBA.
For the past few years the Euro has been highly valued against the dollar but there is much apprehension right now that the Euro may move down towards parity or even disappear if the Euro economy continues to downgrade because of the debt crises of the weaker members such as Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Greece and Spain. Spain is retrenching to avoid bankruptcy. The advantage the Euro teams had vs. the US has been marginalized and may go further south.
This doesn't mean that a billionaire owner couldn't outbid us but uncertainty concerning the future helps our cause.
Link for Game 4, starts in about 20 minutes:

Splitter not getting much help in this game.. Nice up and under move at the end though.
Splitter with 20/8/3.
Real wins 80-62 to force a deciding Game 5 on Caja Laboral's home court on Sunday. Tip-off at 5:30 AM CT.
That's a nice line. Kinda hoping CL gets bounced early now, and that hopefully that makes Splitter realize he needs to go to a team that can support his efforts a little better.
Go Real!
To add, he shot 9-11 from the field and was 2-2 from the charity stripe.
Splitter is playing very well this series.
But Ante Tomic was better yesterday.When he came here this year people said he'll be the new Pau Gasol.To me it was a joke.But he's better every day.
In this link you can see a video of the game withs 3 or 4 Splitter's plays.

3 minutes to go in Game 5. Caja Laboral up by six.

Caja Laboral advanced to the Finals, beating Real Madrid in Game 5 64-56.
Splitter, who was great all series, finished with another nice stat line with 18 points and 9 rebounds.
Real Madrid would have to pay a huge buyout for Splitter. His NBA buyout isn't that expensive, you gotta count that money too.
LOL, I wish that would deter them. If they want him, they have the capabilities of paying any amount needed. They don't care about spending money!
It's up to Splitter to reject them and hopefully he has a desire to become an NBA player, which is a dream for most basketball players. I would like to think he enjoyed his last 2 seasons, made some money and benefited there and now is hopefully ready to move on to the big boys in the NBA.
He is simply much better than any big man there, and if he wants to challenge himself and wants to grow than he needs to come to the NBA.
Damn. Splitter flopped so hard 3 minutes into the game he nearly hurt himself.
They don'y care about spending money, but with the money they would spend in Splitter (5+~7 € millions), they could acquire a couple of european stars. So it would be a dumb move, yes.
They could still acquire other stars with the addition of Splitter, that's no problem for them. Today's news mentioned that they have reportedly signed Sergio Rodriguez. Also he is the Spanish leagues MVP, they would do good by signing the best player in the league.
I think that if Madrid make an offer for Splitter, the only thing that could hold him back from signing is his desire to play in the NBA. If he really has dreams to play in the NBA, than he'll say no.
When does the the next series start?
Game 1 underway:
