I wouldnt' pay $5 mil for his buyout, but if he were cheaper I'd love to try the V-Span experiment.
I remember there being an option for a buyout next season, but only for NEXT SEASON. After that, the normal penalties apply. This was the jist I got from the board.
I wouldnt' pay $5 mil for his buyout, but if he were cheaper I'd love to try the V-Span experiment.
I agree...nor should they.
I don't know what the buyout is...and yeah, Wikipedia should be taken with a grain of salt.
Amerikan reporter get most fact wrong. You not notice yet?
The Spurs don't guarantee minutes to anybody.Also Spurs want makes agreement with Greece national team coach Giannakis and Panathinaikos onwers and coach of team Obradovic for have them develop players for Spurs and also interest negotiatie thing like Spanoulis and Diamantidis and Papaloukas type player join Spurs! For Greece Spurs agree if get such player they will play not ride bench and this help Greece team for more experience for international matches.
Darius Wash > Spanoulis
You do know that I am one of those "Amerikan" reporters you hate so much, right?
That was from the Euroleague site. If he has PF, it's going to bother him for months to come.
Way Billy tell me he sign €5,000,000 and Spurs has to pay him $1,166,400 of $1,944,000 for buyout.
Spurs wants Spanoulis to stay but his mother need help so he have to leave so Spurs wants Panathinaikos pay for $1,166,400 buyout which they do.
So Panathinaikos owner ask Billy take less money and he agree.
So Billy sign for €4,500,000 for 3 year plus get keep $1,166,400 buyout which Greek team end up paying Spurs owner for.
So Billy salary equal $2,250,000 in US money. But this only because he take less money as favor after owner pay buyout.
Normal ask price for him be €1,700,000 which be about $2,500,000 in the US money.
Pluses also Greek team pay €70,000 for car allowance and €130,000 each year for house allowance. So total salary be €1,900,000 which be about $2,850,000.
Also in Greece team salary be net salary so this mean Greece team also pay 40% for tax so they pay 40% of €1,900,000 salary and adds to salary so €2,660,000 be salary equal for NBA which be about $3,990,000 US for NBA salary.
So for Billy real salary price €1,700,000 plus €200,000 for car and house plus €760,0000 for 40% tax pays that mean Spurs has to pay €2,660,000 or $3,990,000 per year for same salary.
So NBA value be 3 years contract for $12,000,000.
But Billy have say before that to me that if actual get coach play him instead of bench him and only with team such as Spurs which best team of NBA then he willing take half MLE for next season which be $2,750,000 and take NBA raise so come to $9 million for 3 years.
He willing take $3 million less than earn in Greece ONLY be play like 20 minute no less for great team like Spurs backs up Parker and Manu.
So Spanoulis same NBA salary be 3 years $12 million but willing to make allowance of 3 years $9 million for only Popovich.
Diamantidis make same salary as Spanoulis so ask price be 3 years $12 million he NOT willing take less. This ask price if he choose NBA.
Papaloukas salary equal €3,500,000 with salary, car, house, and tax so team need pay $5,250,000 a year to get him. He NOT take less if choose join NBA.
Papaloukas say he only interest in Spurs and Celtics if go NBA. Diamantidis only consider Spurs no other team but prefer stay with Panathinaikos. Spanoulis play only for Panathinaikos or Spurs.
So cost for player be
Spanoulis 3 year $12 million but accept 3 year $9 million only for Spurs and if get 20 minute as main backup guard.
Diamantidis 3 year $12 million but mainly want to stay in Greece.
Papaloukas 3 year $15,750,000
Spanoulis much younger player he 25, Diamantidis 27, Papaloukas 30. All player contract expire in 2010 but all have buyout option.
Spurs interest Papaloukas replace player like Barry and Finley. Interest Diamantidis replace player like Bowen when Bowen to old.
Want Spanoulis be first guard off bench.
Euroleague site report in ENGLISH from Amerikan.
Here English copy of ACTUAL report from AS

Vassilis Spanoulis begins therapy
2/10/2007
Vassilis Spanoulis underwent an MRI and visited Panathinaikos doctor, Thanassis Konidis, for a medical exam. The diagnosis is «left foot BF rupture» which means that the international guard will miss the trip to the US next week and is expected to abstain from any physical activity for two weeks. Spanoulis has already started therapy suggested by Mr. Konidis and will be reexamined at the end of the week. *PAO is already in Lemessos in order to take part in the local tournament hosted by AELemessos, which are the first opponents of the European Champions tomorrow evening (17.00, live on cable).
Yes he have this injury all last year to. Like say Amerikan reporter get most fact wrong.
Guess this why Duncan not go Orlando???
There won't be any guarantees for playing time or position off the bench. If that is the most important thing to them they will never be Spurs, nor should they be.
Wrong again. Guys like Duncan are good enough that their playing time is a given no matter where they play. Only insecure guys have to try to make teams agree to it.
You must have read problem. Coach Popovich OFFER this to Spanoulis. He not ask for anything. He not even discuss with Popovich.
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. He made offered Manu a starting job too.
Pop would never offer anyone guaranteed playing time.
He have take less money because team pay Spurs buyout so buyout number drop plus he have player opt out clause after this year because agent and him know Spurs wants him and he have chance mother be in better health after year. So he have.
2007-2008 no player option and $6,750,000 buyout
2008-2009 PLAYER OPTION buyout = $4,500,000 if choose NOT opt out of contract
2009-2010 no player option and $2,250,000 buyout
Main thing for Billy to opt out is mom must have good health and he must win triple crown championship this year with Panathinaikos as he make this personal goal for Greek career. If things happen can discuss opt out with Spurs.
wikipedia not be updated on buyout look like since several month before.
What wrong with here?
Where I say he offer guarantee play time??? Some other poster here say that.
I NEVER say anything about "guarantee" play time.
I say he offer backup role like 20 minute from Popovich. Never say "guarantee" that made up word from other poster here.
What is a BF?
Same thing as PF just translation issue. It same exact injury Duncan have before. Spanoulis play last year in NBA and also at Eurobasket with it but final it get to bad to play with so need like month rest.
I keep try explain Amerikans most all report from Amerikans on foreign player either wrong or complete lie or just real bad translation.
Rest doesn't help it heal.Same thing as PF just translation issue. It same exact injury Duncan have before. Spanoulis play last year in NBA and also at Eurobasket with it but final it get to bad to play with so need like month rest.
Where do you get word "guarantee" STOP make up thing Greek never say. This main reason Houston fan all turn on Spanoulis by believe thing made up by Van Gundy that never say by Spanoulis.
Popovich have offer him backup guard role and play would be available like 20 minute. How you be allow make LIE claim that some say "he promise play time"?
Amerikan have such bad manner.
Spanoulis not have guarantee of play time with Panathinaikos why he get guarantee with Spurs???
It Rocket Gm Dawson that was lies to him about play time.

Treatment
Many different treatments have been effective, and although it typically takes six to eighteen months to find a favorable resolution,[2] plantar fasciitis has a generally good long-term prognosis. The mainstays of treatment are stretching the Achilles tendon and plantar fascia, resting, keeping off the foot as much as possible, discontinuing aggravating activity,
