Damn, the Russian League is just getting stronger and stronger.
Well I'm glad that he's not in the league anymore. If we couldn't have him, I didn't want other teams to. I remember he mentioned the possibility of going back to Europe if he couldn't salvage his NBA career in Toronto. I'm not exactly sure what he used as a measure for success (I thought he had a fairly good season), but I guess he just went with what will probably be his biggest payday.
