Aside from the fact that you have to pay them and give them a roster spot, I suppose not.
Can you 'stash' someone in the D-League in the same way that you can 'stash' someone in Europe, or are there major differences?

I wouldn't call it a conflict because there's no way the Spurs let Richards screw up getting Splitter here. But, there is a definite benefit to getting Splitter to sign for something less than the MLE and Richards is the guy who would probably stand to benefit the most from it.
The Spurs would be in the same boat with any 2nd rounder they thought highly of who wanted to be in the nba immediately.
Not according to Richards, and what he thinks about it does matter quite a bit.
Remains to be seen whether or not the Spurs agree with him.
After hearing RC's comments about him knowing how Richards felt, it sure seemed like they were aware and fine with his plans to be in the States next year.
I'm guessing he'll be on the Toros next year, which Richards is fine with.
it's jul. 8th, 2010
and i am posting in this thread..
and tiago splitter is not a spur at this very moment
As long as we get him signed.
Just a reminder, Herb Rudoy represents both Splitter and Richards.
Splitter's agent is Arn Tellem. He dropped Rudoy few months ago.
come on spurs get this done
Hhhhmmmmm.....
With all the freaking out about Splitter, a vBookie would be quite nice.
Well that sucks. Instead of the guy who reps Manu and Oberto, we get the guy who just got 119M for Joe Johnson.
That reminds me, I still have to watch that series. In one thread the third post was a link to the 2nd game. Does anyone know how much longer those games will be online?
But I do think Splitter is about as sure a thing to be a quality NBA starting bigman as there is. The guy can clearly play, handles the pressure well, and he'll fit our team beautifully. There will be bumps in the road, but I think by year 2 we'll be very happy with Splitter.
Freakin SIGN HIM already!
And is Tiago still under 250 lbs?
Cheer up. Splitter's "max" can't be any greater than the MLE.Well that sucks. Instead of the guy who reps Manu and Oberto, we get the guy who just got 119M for Joe Johnson.
I know, but I had been encouraged by the notion of having a guy that's done business with RC repping both Tiago and Richards. Splitter clearly wants to play in the NBA, so I remain optimistic.
Links still working, no idea how long they'll be up:

CAJA LABORAL
Spanish League champion Caja Laboral will do it best to reach its first Final Four in three years. The always ambitious and fiercely compe ive Laboral brings back a rock-solid core of players that includes Tiago Splitter, Lior Eliyahu, Fernando San Emeterio, Marcelo Huertas and Mirza Teletovic as well as signature head coach Dusko Ivanovic. Laboral will be a tough opponent yet again this season as it tries to get back to its recent glory days of the past decade.
Probably means nothing...
I saw that too. It's probably just someone reading off a stat sheet.
It's accurate for the moment.
I'm starting to get worried about this...
Right there with you.
Better to get it done than dance around with negotiating ploys.
Spurs need Splitter more than Splitter needs the Spurs.
I think that that figure is more indicative of a team with a weak GM than Tiago's agent. Apparently, guys like Travis Outlaw are worth more than we think. NOT, it's just over-reactionary behavior on teams with no fiscal know-how or responsibility. Since the Spurs own his rights, all roads go through San Antonio, but we all hope his...ends in San Antonio.Well that sucks. Instead of the guy who reps Manu and Oberto, we get the guy who just got 119M for Joe Johnson.
Spurs need to hurry up so that Splitter can plan his press conference!
Do you think the Spurs are waiting on his buyout to happen before they commit to a contract? Maybe just a formality? What's the hurry?
Doesn't he report for the National Team practice on the 19th?
Maybe the Spurs won't need a press conference for a player they don't sign.
