    Tourney ends on SEP 22. If he does play, it will probably be a month of training camp and practice with his national team. 3 week tourney. And he's here in game shape for our training camp.

    Fuck! I just asked Casey Holdahl of the Blazers and said Batum is playing this summer for France.

    I don't really mind it. As France has already qualified, they will play fewer games than others. And considering most of their front court is up in air, I don't see them going very far in the knockout round. Should be a good chance to improve for him. If it were something like the Olympics where games mean more, I'd want him to rest, but this... not so much
