Hey Stu, it's Regatas do Flamengo

 

[CKR132]

I read from an article that the contract has an Escape Clause where if the lockout should end, Barbosa can return to the Toronto Raptors.

Barbosa was a valuable sixth man last season.

If the lockout ends, his contract with Flamengo is automaticly broke and he returns to Toronto.

Yep, I don't see him playing a full season for Flamengo. Things are still uncertain, but the NBA will figure a deal sooner or later. He will at best play a few games of the NBB.

 

[Duncan2]

He should be playing for Brazil in the FIBA America's! F'n p@ssy!

He's playing the South American League in november. Also, Flamengo will try to have him to NBB finals if the Raptors season is over before (he would be fa anyway).
