Re: Roko's 2007/2008 Thread
one thing that's disconcerting was when BC said roko's croatian agent has a different mindset on the process. i think this is the same guy that was involved in the original extortion process that kept roko from signing in the first place.
secondly, he doesn't have a buyout this year. and barca may want hom back after a good season. there's a rumour that they're going to bring in messina and start pulling out all the stops to be a major player. one thing that's working for us is the money issue--if they can engineer a buyout, at least barca can something for him before he's a free agent.
kinda weird, i'd thought he had a declining buyout each year of his deal and that we hadn't brought him over before due to the size of it in those years relative to what we could pay him.

Re: Roko's 2007/2008 Thread
Sweet....his numbers are not ones that jump out at you but he seems to be consistent. The experience gained going deep into the playoffs will be valuable as well!

i was under that impression as well. are you sure that isn't what BC meant when he said he didn't have a buyout? that his buyout figure had declined to 0?

i seem to remember bc saying something along the lines that roko would be amenable to a buyout if the team would allow it. but my previous memory of roko's contract is closer to the situation you outlined.

the assumption i'm going with is that roko has no buyout provision. an agreement made outside of his present contract would have to be engineered. i'm not aware of any agreement his club has beyond presently having him "on loan" to roma. depending on the consideration involved in his current situation, his team may be willing to "create" a buyout rather than receiving no return when he becomes a free agent.

5/4/2 in game one of the semis. didn't shoot well from 3 but got the victory.
http://195.56.77.208/game/?id=63281
played very well in game 2 with 18/5/4 in 25 minutes. lead his team to the W shooting 3/4 from 2 and the stripe and 3/6 from 3.
Roma can sweep the series with a win tomorrow.

Roko with 12/5/3 as Roma sweeps Avellino. He missed all 6 of his 3s but went 6/9 from inside the arc.
