The offer from PANATHINAIKOS to punter is 2,5M/year. We already have vildoza, i prefer him regarded as sg and not our main PG. we need a pass first pg, thats why we have made the offer to campazzo.
on the other hand from what we hear the last couple of days, the alternative is mike james, definetely not a pass first pg, maybe the exact opposite. of course there are not many pure point guards if not getting campazzo, thompson is one of them but he is headed to italy and i would not risk with him, he hasnt proved anything on the higher level yet. So my alternative would be getting also calathes if we get james.
James,calathes,vildoza,punter would be a good backcourt. plus moraitis for greek league, plus one more between guards and forwards. thomas if ataman wants a run and gun team or elijah bryant if he wants someone to bring more balance to the team between offense and defence with a guy that would accept being the man to do the dirty job.
then we have the forwards, i think hezonja will come back,his agent made a '' strange '' post yesterday on social media, with the croatian in green. 2 days after winning euroleague and making these kind of posts means that there's fire. the team wants him. i think he fits better as a PF. and can make room for both mantzoukas (as a PF) and papapetrou (as a SF).
So my roster would be built like this, considering the fact we must have at least 6 greeks in greek league, so having many foreigners above the number 6 would not be good for the chemistry of a team, that will by 80% be new. So 7 of them is fine i think
James,calathes,moraitis
Vildoza,punter, thomas
Bryant, papapetrou
Hezonja,mantzoukas
