    Well, that's certainly an endorsement of Boban, because you know that that's a franchise that can actually be relied on to acquire talent.

    I'm curious why this guy doesn't just go to the D league and get called up. Surprises me more international players don't go that route with teams owning their own D league clubs now.

    Because he probably got paid 50x more at Red Star Belgrade than he will with the Fort Wayne D-league club,.

    Exactly. D-League wages are pitiful.

    Also, it was two years ago that he played in Summer League, not one (my fading memory).

    I understand that but at his age, he's probably not financially stressed and if you want a front door to the NBA, it's a lot closer to the market. Doesn't pan out, you spend a year trying out for a franchise minor league like the Austin Toros and Pop gets an up close look at your game

    Now the question is....

    Does this mean you're going to stop pleasuring yourself to Boban highlight videos?

    WTF is happening?!?!?! WHY IS THE ENTIRE FUCKING UNIVERSE HELPING THE SPURS WIN A CHAMPIONSHIP?!?!?!

    I'm telling ya, anyday now we'll hear about the Warriors moving Curry for Patty Mills and then about Obama transferring 10 billion dollars for the sacred cause of the Spurs winning a championship.

    The spurs should be forced to pay over the cap for all the guys they've got
