TP's team in France could be a good option for Blair. He won't make as much money as in Russia but he will be in a better environment.

Krasnye Krylya Samara released DeJuan Blair
Krasnye Krylya Samara released today Spurs PF DeJuan Blair. The experience of the player in Russia lasted just few weeks. As per the official website of Samara, the contract with Blair expired at the end of VTB League and FIBA Eurochallenge Qualification Rounds and the two parts decided not to renew it. Blair will fly back to States on Thursday.
"DeJuan helped us to to get to the main draw of VTB League. It was the most important goal for us for the first part of the season. We thank him for the brilliant performances he had in these games" said GM of Samara Sergey Timofeyev.
"My trip to Russia and the performances with the team have been great and very interesting for me. It will be an unforgettable experience. In Russia I have lived in a different culture and the girls are just incredibly beautiful. I found not only a strong team but also good friends that I will visit one day, maybe next summer. In the last games maybe the team was not able to show its potential but I am sure the team is strong. I will follow Samara also from America" said Blair.
Blair has played 3 games in VTB League averaging 16ppg and 6.7rpg and also one game in PBL in which he scored 14 points and grabbed 4 rebounds
TP's team in France could be a good option for Blair. He won't make as much money as in Russia but he will be in a better environment.
Only a few weeks, huh? Guess Dejuan really missed those Whataburgers.
They had to send him home before he embarassed the entire continent with his dominance.
His team in Russia is not that good, and they played in Eurochallenge Qualification which is a a level 3 compe ion in Europe. So he was very far from Euroleague.
Agreed and CROFL at the Spurs' starting center being cut by the Russians!![]()
Not surprising, considering his size, ty jumper and all the zone D they play in Europe
He didn't get cut, his contract ended. Sounds like they mutually agreed to not renew it. The first sentence of the article is misleading.
yup
probably too much money to renew + Blair might have wanted to come back. He did score 23 and 12 in at least 1 game I heard. So no, I don't think he sucked.
that shiiiiittttt!!! Weeeeeeeeee!!!

Where the is Manu_Forever when you need him?
lol mendicating from Germany for internet.
well if the contract wasn't renewed after only a few games then you have to believe that someone didn't feel they were getting their money's worth.
He was impregnating white russian women left and right. Medvedev and Putin could not take it anymore.
I thought Splitter was Euroleague MVP.
Where's the nearest goat farm to his house?
Who says that?
Translation: Russian groupies > Big city US groupies> small market US groupies
Well, if you've ever heard Blair give an interview or ever read one of his tweets, you know that he didn't say any of that. At least not in those words. Somebody prepared a quote to be attributed to him.
translated back
Of course he was.
You're a liar.
So......the world's best basketball players play in the NBA. Thanks, KBP.
