Robertas Javtokas NOT playing for spurs next year

**Mr. Peabody** · 07-12-2006

Is it possible that Javtokas was not as physically sound as the Spurs preferred? I mean the guy did have a major injury.

**Quadzilla99** · 07-12-2006

Wow, what ty news to come home to. Francisco ing Elson.

He was never going to play in summer league. That was a bad report. He is training with the national team.

We should have signed scola

**RuffnReadyOzStyle** · 07-12-2006

Man, this is definitely the biggest disappointment of the offseason so far.

Butler (not a done deal, but fingers crossed), Vaughn, Javtokas and I would have been happy with the offseason. Better yet if they managed to sign an SF for development.

No Javtokas takes a lot of the sheen off...

**ducks** · 07-12-2006

if scola could not play with duncan on the court why sign him
scola would not have been happy with 8 minutes a game

**violentkitten** · 07-12-2006

lmfao

now spurs fans who championed cheapness are ing about it.

**V-2** · 07-13-2006

OK guys,

Robertas' contract with Panathinaikos is 1.5M euros/year without including the bonuses. This is obviously alot of dough.

Sounds like if the Knicks match on Butler, the Spurs can turn around and give that money to Javtokas.

Apparently the Spurs told him this morning that they were going in another direction. His agent said they were "surprised" by it but I'm guessing the negotiations weren't going well. So then he signed with a team in Greece, however he reportedly can get out of that contract if he settles with the Spurs by Friday.

I don't think he's coming, but who knows.

**AndRe-LT** · 07-13-2006

Guys, guys don't worry, it's not over yet, Javtokas will play in Panatinaikos, if he don't sing contract with a spurs ! Now, there are some difficultes with a contract singing ! "Interperformence" announced !

About 1.9 million at the average exchange rate for the past few days.

Dont know to much about this guy, but has not played a min against NBA professionals. That alone is a big difference compared to the euro league. He has to prove he is worth the money first....

sure he has, just not under NBA rules.

Javtokas's price will just go up. If he's too expensive now, he'll be too expensive later.

**Mr. Body** · 07-13-2006

Javtokas played against a lot of professionals in the Olympics.

**E20** · 07-13-2006

I guess the Spurs are hoping that TD pulls out a 29/14/6 year.

anyway, my english is bad, but I'll try to translate

in the first part of the article they say that Javtokas is disapointed and so on, that he was expected to sign a contract with Spurs, but after such accident, he signed with Panathinaikos.

the second part says that "Interperfomance" agency (Robertas Javtokas is their client) member in Lithuania Virginijus Bulotas said that is not all over yet. He says that they are still in talks with Spurs and that it is not clear where Javtokas will play upcoming season.

best wishes from Lithuania

this was posted on another board by a poster who is from Lithunia
it is from that article.....
hopefully thinks can be worked out
