What do you have against Saško? :mad:

I have a different list of my "beloved" refs. One on it is the most well known Croatian ref.


Ask Saško first what does he has against Maccabi? ;)

all european contract, in all sport, in without tax.

No. The european contracts are NETTO, in NBA the contract are BRUTTO. It isn't the same thing. In Europe the team pays the taxes for the player. In NBA the player pays his taxes.

In Russia the taxes are very low, only 10%. If CSKA gives to a player 1 M$, CSKA pays about 1.11 M$.

In Israel the taxes are about 50%. If Maccabi gives to a player 1 M$, Maccabi pays near to 2 M$.

Nachbar's father told slovenian media, that Bostjan's contract is actually worth 28 milijon USD netto for 3 seasons (that is 6 milijon € netto per year :eek: . Well I hardly believe this, but it is reported on slovenian basket federation website, that is very reliable.
 
If Nachbar really got 6 mil € per year than he took the "most overpaid player award" from Delfino/Tsakalidis/Papadopoulos/Vasquez hands... that's the money you pay to Peja, Dirk, Kirilenko, Gasol... not Nachbar.
I think 3 millions per year is a much more reasonable and likely thing to happen.

The effect of Blatt instead of all those ex-Yu coaches are already visible, they'll obviously be going for a fast bball this year.
 
Concerning Jumaine Jones two contracts, i found the following on eurobasket.com about a similar case for another player

Mersin Buyuksehir Belediyespor of Turkey who has announced the signing of James Peters (204-F-81, college: UNLV) shocked with the news from American power forward. James Peters who has played for Fort Wayne Mad Ants of D-League last year informed the club that he has signed for a South Korean team and will not come to Turkey. Despite the legal, signed contract, players act has created huge anger on Mersin side. Club officials said, due to FIBA transfer rules, no player can sign with two clubs at the same time as they've a valid contract for 2008-2009 season and any club who wants to sign with James Peters should talk with them. Mersin will apply to FIBA with the signed official contract of James Peters. Due to the rules, player and his agent migh be banned for up to two years because of the act.

If that is true, than it will be serious trouble for Jones and his agent Miroslav Ilic
 
Dynamo and Khimki are doing everything to get into the EL.

I realy think that it´s time to give Russia 3 EL spots. It is very sad that we can´t watch players like Lampe, Delfino, Nachbar, Lavrinovic and so on, because stupid Uleb is giving 2 places to France and 4 to Italy. IMO a qualification round would be nice.
 
agree with Buducnost PG.russia deserves at least 2 spots and why not 3.euroleague needs teams like dynamo to get sronger.more competition makes the league better overall.

It's gonna be tragic or comic, really. The player swears he didn't sign for Ural Great and it is rumored the signature on the contract with the Russians is false. :D
 
İ know that Galatasaray has a budget near to 6 million. İ think Zizic was not a cheap signing but the PG and SG signings are two young americans (Strickland and Graves). Our manager said that our PF will be star a few days ago...so I think Herrmann would be by far our most expensıve signing. Thats why they signed with two cheaper unexcperienced american Guards. Galatasaray has not enough money to sign 5 players like Zizic and Herrmann. But anyway..it would be great :)
