European Competitions 2023/24 - Signings & Rumours

[paspalj]

Mykhailiuk has the NBA offer from the one club, but wants something better and both PAO and OLY are interested. Maybe I am deluded but I don't think he would be that big factor in both teams. He is good player for the Europe but for me not that special like many people consider him.

According to SDNA (radio) Mykhailiuk wants something like 3 mil to come to Europe. No one is going to give him that amount of money. He barely made 1 mil net on his last NBA contract, I think his expectations are dumb.

Will you just stop with this silly trash talk please? Just because you both got your money for your state and suddenly got interested in every goddamn player doesn't mean that you are the only one on this board. So, please, stop. In other news, Evans and Brazdeikis will stay in Zalgiris for one more year, this is now confirmed. So we are expecting some great games in next season too, now that all of our core players stayed.

Dont be that angry, u will have pleasure to watch the best derby in Europe (with Oly-Pao).

I'm wondering if anyone here has more info about wtf is Virtus doing with Toko. Is it true that they wanted to get rid of his contract or was it just rumors? Do they just apply pressure for a buy out because they know Pao is behind Toko?

I'm pretty sure that Pao doesn't want to pay for a buy out, Shengelia will pay out of pocket. Is Virtus playing the waiting game knowing that there aren't many PFs left (since Mirotic will probably go to Partizan) and eventually Pao will fold and pay? But if they are willing to play this game of chicken, is it worth it to them to put such a big contract in the books for next year for 500k (or whatever it is they are asking for)?

Fener is champion in wasting money, it's a fact

Throwing 1m buyout for Willbekin, paying Bjelica for nothing and now 1.5m for Calathes contract termination

Last season signings were awful, this season is better but we are paying price now for past mistakes

Whoever comes I would keep Calathes as 2nd pg rather then waste 1.5 milions

I told you that Calathes is catastrophic get. Now you have to pay to get out, like Barca did last year. He's the biggest fraud in last 10 years.

About Kemba Walker I suppose he passed the medical tests before being signed. Of course it is a risky choice, but Monaco as it has already been written has alternatives in case of injury.

Mike James has a very high salary, difficult to find another team for him.

Considering that Motejunas renewed his contract the roster should be considered closed.

Yes you were always against, but I am not one who ever supported that move

[MikeMaccabiFan]

Oh I didn’t know that. Do you think he’ll have health issues during the year?

He might. There is a reason he can't find a NBA team.

I am, for instance, very much worried about Maccabi signing Kaminsky who had similar knee injury couple of years ago.

Although I don’t like Calathes I agree that unless Fener has money to burn, it would be ok to keep him as a back up PG

Lol at Bob though. Just mentioning the name summoned him. He will not rest until Calathes bamboozles the last team and rides off to the sunset.

Everyone is aware of Calathes' shooting issues, which is what makes this all so puzzling. When Itoudis was plotting Fener's future in the war room of his luxury Istanbul apartment a year ago and decided to make Calathes integral to his plans (and committing significant amounts of Fener's budget to do so) was he expecting him to suddenly start shooting 40% from three? Maybe he's seeing an overall decline in his game but otherwise I'm not sure what else Itoudis was expecting from him.

I wonder where Calathes will sign after he secures the buyout?

I see that this year there are no clear favorites.
Real, Barca, Fener, Efes, Oly, Pao, Monaco, CZ, Partizan, Maccabi, Milano, Valencia have very competitive rosters and are quite close to each other. I already mentioned 12 teams.....so who can rank them? I think if the games don't start nobody can predict what the order will be. I always give a priority to the teams that continue largely with the same core and the same coach so.....Monaco, Real, Fener, Maccabi, Oly, Partizan, Milano for me start from a better base.

PS I know Janketa he wasn't talking about power rankings. Μy friend he should not worry, Fener has laid the foundations since the previous year.

i wouldnt be worried about his knee simply because there is one lonely thing maccabi is still a powerhouse: his phisicians. if they would say ok, i'm very tranquil. so technically writing of Kam, wel it would be a good add. center with sensitive hands instead of dunkers and muscles, is something i'd like. said that ,this roster have no chance to get playoffs even without russians

[flyfish]

Lo to Milan official. Great player, if healthy.
