I'd rather have him play for a Euroleague big gun

Translation of the quote:
(ASVEL/Villeurbane being the BB team he partially owns)«If the conflict lasts, I think i'll come back in France to play, so that my fans can see me close, explained Parker this Sunday in "Le Parisien". I could play for a huge Euroleague team, but I don't want. I already had my share of glory and les. So if lock-out lasts, I'll surely play in Villeurbane»

I'd rather have him not playing at all...
well... if there's a lock-out, i don't see how this could be problematic since European leagues schedule around 30 games per season
I agree. However, Parker's skill is predicated on his speed. I don't need him playing in some BS league that may cause him some injury.
Yeah, right, he'll be better off doing nothing for a year, that surely will imprive his skills.
Tony is a compe or, and every experience he gets makes him better.
He can't. He's under contract with the Spurs and thus I'm sure its against FIBA rules to play for a Euro pro team even with a lockout. I don't think he can even play with his team.
Nope, here are Stern's words:
source here: http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=6125242“If in fact there's a lockout, then the player is free during the course of the lockout to do what he wants to do, if his contract is in effect... You know, if we have a collective bargaining relationship with the union and there's a lockout, then last time around, players were free to do what they're going to do, because they've been locked out."
Take this possible European tour as a all inclusive training camp. Injuries happen everywhere at anytime (Pop tanking the last 2 games and Manu getting injured nevertheless...)
Ok well, you sure know what you are talking about
Interesting. So, if they go sign with a Euroleague team and they sign a multiyear contract which contract takes precedent when the lockout is over>
There's no reason for you to be butthurt. If I'm wrong then thats fine.Ok well, you sure know what you are talking about
i guess they could sign flexible contracts in Europe allowing them to come back as soon as the lock out ends
Don't like the sound of this...
well, if there's no Spurs game next season; watching spurs players in European Leagues would be better than nothing right?
