OT The Influx From Europe

[Rastapopoulos]

The sudden explosion of FA money in the NBA has opened the floodgates of players wanting to cross over the pond (where previously they might not have considered it).

Consider this a thread to keep track.

Sergio to the Sixers.
Malcolm Delaney to the Hawks.
Possibly Rudy to the Sixers.

Also:

Pissed about Kuzminskas - he's another PG in a forward's body that seems to be common over there. But then again, that didn't work too well for Bjelica last year for the Wolves, and he was much more well-thought-of.

Kuzminskas's finest hour:

With Brexit, expect 60 million Brits to move here soon.

 

[Mediocre Man]

So the entire continent of Europe is spurning the Blazers too?

We need to build a wall in the middle of the Atlantic ocean to prevent this from happening.

Yet still, nobody wants Kostas Papanikolau

Tough to tell about Kuz since so many of his highlights were against Harden who half of this board could score on. Hot girlfriend though (1:40ish of the highlight video).

He'll always have this:

I wonder if we can get Trump to build a wall around Europe to keep them in?

Can probably get the Brits to pay for it.

There was always foreign players like Niko Galis and Oscar Schmidt that could have played over here as far back as the 70's. A lot of them played here in college and we're drafted in the late rounds. They just were never brought in for a training camp or were willing to give up their amateur playing status in the Olympics. It's not like American soccer players where they just flat out suck and can't play overseas.
