    Hey Manu4five

    Hey elindholm http://www.nba.com/games/20101120/CLESAS/gameinfo.html?ls=gt2hp0021000187#nbaGIboxscore I guess 18 points (7-10), 5 reb., 2 assists, 2 steals, 2 blocks in 26 min., drawing fouls and playing great D is still not enough? You said Splitter sucks and will never play in the NBA. Do...

    Hey Manu4five

    Thanks. BTW I don't have time to check all forums of teams all the time. I'm a regular at SpursTalk not this forum. I like the Suns and congrats to a good win against the Fakers. Now I'm off to watch a live bball game full of euro scrubs who can only dream about playing in the NBA.

    Hey Manu4five

    Hey elindholm First, I would like to ask you if you are still in denial and still confident that Splitter will never play in the NBA? :mulli: Second, he is playing very well! As you know (?) he got an unfortunate injury and missed all pre season games and the first games of the season. He...

    Thank you elindholm. Just one thing: Splitter is not locked into a slave contract until he is 29. With slave contract I was referring to the rookie scale. Since he stayed in Europe until he was 25 he was not bound by the rookie scale and could sign a 3-year, 11 M contract. Other than that...

    How about Drazen Petrovic? And why don't you answer my questions elindholm? Typical troll behaviour.

    Meanwhile elindholm is thinking "Where is my buddy Charlie Chaplin when i need him. He could at least light a candle for me".

    So how do you explain that Splitter in fact signed a contract with the Spurs? Also why would the Spurs FO want to bring him over if he sucks so bad?

    Four years is a long time for a young pro. Anything can happen during those years. There are also many different reasons for a player to make a certain decision. One of Splitter's reasons to stay in Europe a few years extra was that he wanted to be close to and help his sister, Michelle, who...

    Aha you were not talking about him as a chef. Maybe could have been a nice escape route: "I didn't mean he sucked at basketball" LOL So do you think Splitter will play in the holy NBA? Why will his skills not translate to the NBA exactly?

    Ok but do you understand these are good players? Do you agree that Garbajosa is equal to Horry and Diamantidis to Bowen? I know it's hard for americans to acknowledge such a thing, given their inflated view of the NBA.

    Back to topic, do you guys realize how good Diamantidis is? Or Garbajosa? That game Spain-Greece was gooood.

    elindholm, problem is you are wrong but will not admit it. My original statement was that some top euro talents will stay in europe because of the rookie scale and that it is a rational, professional decision. You have narrowed down that category to players who later will dominate in the nba and...

    slinslin already gave you another perfect example. From Wiki: "Ginóbili spent the early part of his basketball career in Argentina and Italy, where he won several individual and team honors. His stint with Italian side Kinder Bologna was particularly productive, earning two Lega A Most...

    Or he only meant euro talents who stay in europe, but not until they are 25 like Ginobili or even longer like a whole bunch of players? Maybe he meant only Argentinians named Scola belong to the category? Then he is in fact right, only Scola belong to the Scola category :)

    Ok so elindholm believes no euro top talents have panned out in the nba? I'm sorry that is just too stupid.

    2010 FIBA World Championship Thread

    Yes and more recently Rubio. There will be more like them since top "Euro" talents who have been pros for several years don't necessarily want or need to sign a slave contract for 3-4 years. They can come to the NBA later so it's not like they are scared of the competition. As long as the rookie...

    This. Too bad he got into early foul trouble against US. Odom had a nice block on him but in general he outplayed the American bigs (in fact his stats was slightly better than the combined stats of Odom, Love and Chandler). He has a nice pick and roll game but Brasil actually did a poor job...

    If PHX didn't have Nash..?

    You swept us in the playoffs. You gained a lot of respect from Spurs fans and the nba. Nash is probably the most underrated player in the league and it's just sad he cannot play forever. Wish you all the best.

    ESPN Insider Article - Suns 3rd Worst Franchise for the Future?

    I agree about Kidd but I see the Artest signing as another typical Lakers big market signing. To give one earlier example in 2003 Lakers signed Karl Malone and Gary Payton for pocket money (fail ring chasers :D). Spurs have signed some quality old vets too (Horry, Barry, Dice) but never a Karl...

    ESPN Insider Article - Suns 3rd Worst Franchise for the Future?

    As a Spurs fan I can assure you this isn't true. Before the "big three" was formed we went after big name FAs and even when Parker was a rookie we went after the likes of Kidd, trying very hard just to see him sign somewhere else. The most important signing of the Spurs was Bowen who was...
