I am funny, thanks.

All kidding aside, get him over here, we're gona do big things this year and it's good to have him be a part of that, even spending time in the D-League will allow him to get acclimated to the NBA game, and that's what we want, we want to breed him into a player for THIS league, not Euroleague.

but again, it wasnt because you had special insight into something. The reasoning behind your "guarantee" is not necessarily the reasoning behind the clippers motives. Its like saying it WILL rain tomorrow because your cousin had a dream about it. If it does rain tomorrow, yes, you were right, but its kind of a half prediction since the reason that it rained is not because of your cousins dream but because of some metorogical or whatever reason.

Same thing here. You claimed that it was a guarantee that korolev would be signed for reasons that have never come out from the clippers. If indeed he does sign, it will not be for those reasons. It will be the reasons that i had mentioend...the fact that they could not get bonzi nor SAR, and because of him impressing the clippers lately. THIS is what has been confirmed.

I am worried about the buyout though. If its 1-2 million dollars, that means korolev has to pay 1 million or more of it himself. The clippers cant sign him to a contract unti thats taken care of, so im just hoping hes able to get the one million from a loan, his agency, or something.

As long as we didnt get sar or bonzi, i definately wanted korolev over here too. It almost makes me want to NOT get padgett. Korolev will not get much playing time if padgett is on the team. Even as it is, he doesnt look to get more than 5-10 minutes a game, if that.

Pro A : Yaroslav Korolev to Paris Basket Racing ? - Aug. 26, 2005 - by Laurent Sallard
Allowed to play in Pro A next season after a long procedure, Paris Basket Racing began his rebuilding process very late. Most of the Pro A teams rosters are now complete but Paris has only one player under contract as T.J. Parker (187-G-84, college: Northwestern) signed a one year contract with PBR last Wednesday. According to local newspaper Le Parisien, American point guard John Linehan (175-G-78, college: Providence), Georgian forward Giorgi Mamatsashvili (198-F-86), promising center Robert Rothbart (216-C-86) and junior power forward Kim Tillie (205-F-88) are expected to be back with the Parisian team next season.

Paris Basket Racing lost 1.3 million euros last season and will have only 600.000 euros to build its new team. That's why PBR executive Reed Salwen is trying to bring talented players for less money. He declared to L'Equipe yesterday that he was in contact with CSKA Moscow. The Russian team could loan to Paris young players missing playing time, like Yaroslav Korolev (206-G/F-87), who was drafted by the Los Angeles Clippers with the 12th pick last june.

Don't know what this is all about...
