He is easy to be traded. Plenty of NBA centers are worse than him.
I think the big Russian clubs will all cut budgets for next year. But they will still be able to sign any player they want. One of the other clubs will make Euroleague. Either be UNICS, Khimki, or Dynamo. Whichever clubs makes Euroleague next year will for sure try to get some big players.
Lindsey is working on a trade with the Rockets right now.........
They may have the money but do they realy want to sign him? We are not talking about Kobe or Lebron and from what I hear his game is more of an NBA type then European game?
Either way just get somebody please....anybody.......anyone...who can stay healthy................I sure as don't want to count on Bonner and Ian next year to be playing center!
I gave up on him around the same time I gave up on Scola ever coming here.
Don't think he'll ever even be offered a contract and REALLY don't care.
And He will play for his NT all the summers !
Anything New on him
Javtokas Is a strong well-built 6'11. He will be 30 next year, but is very athletic and can block shots/ get rebounds and defend post players ( Tim Duncan 2004 Olympics ) and doesn't need any touches. Finally tim could have someone to play behind him when he leaves the paint to go double. paying him $2.5 million per year is fair to me. Maybe 3 if we cant get any other shot blockers or younger more athletic players. For all the spurs fans out there; please understand that the big 3 take $40 of $70 million the spurs have. That leaves options on free agents very limited. And in today's economy Peter Holt doesn't and never has wanted to go over the luxury tax. We as a city are not a big enough market and we also don't know what the future holds when it comes to the Economy. All I'm saying is when it comes to the spurs spending money, and all these free agents and euro's that we want on the team; stop and take a minute to look at things from Mr. Holts standpoint.
Javtokas' season has ended in Russia few days ago.
AFAIK, he will be a FA this summer.
Javtokas is not a great player but he is so tough and so strong !
The Spurs need a player like him next to Duncan.
Not too old, experienced, a beast under the rim in offense and defense.
I hope he will be a Spurs next year.
He is for sure better than Bonner, Thomas, Oberto.
+1 on Bonner and Oberto.
Maybe on Thomas
Maybe also on Gooden (There are reason's why Gooden has been traded and bought out so much. Just look at what he's done in games 3 and 4 against the Mavs)
Also, a lot of the money behind the recent compe iveness of Euro Salaries has dropped away with the financial crisis (which is now worldwide). NBA salaries are going to (at least temporarily, as they are locked in by the CBA) regain their prominence relative to Euro salaries... It might be very possible to get Javtokas over here for something in the vicinity of the LLE.
Dynamo is in huge financial troubles (Russia was hit pretty hard with this recession), the players haven't receive pay in 4 months. Boki might be FA this summer too.
KBP bashing you for saying that European Clubs don't pay their players in
3... 2... 1...
Is lies!
Bring him over, RC. I can tell you right now he's better than Oberto and Bonner, and we could use him down low.
wouldn't surprise me, Rockets need a Mutombo replacement now. Shotblocking rebounder with no offensive skills . . . the perfect fit.
Robertas isn't the player we drafted years ago, after his bike crash he will never be the same player again. IMO Mahinmi > Javtokas
No jumpshot, no high post.
by the way, Robertas > Oberto+Bonner
