    Red star fan and no couldn’t do both trips and I go to Serbia all the time so I figured might as well go to London and check it out.
    Oh, I see. Red Star fans were great. Serbs know a thing or two about old school atmosphere.

              Good luck - Wall's 2019-2020 salary (when his extension kicks in) will be $37.8M, increasing to $46.8M by 2022-2023, and he has a 15% trade kicker just to add to the impact.

                  You are more likely to consider canning the coach.

                      Even if for a valuation you might think that a GM doing his job would put in calls to the dumbest/most desperate franchises in the league to see what Walls current valuation is....

                      Phoenix...who have high draft picks and young players who would do better outside of that poorly constructed team.
                      NYK....they have nothing outside of the Zinger.....
                      Sacto....who have a crying need for anything and have shown an appetite for petulant Kentucky draft picks .they have a high pick this year and cap space and some young players to offer

                      And maybe a call to trader Koby Altman...he has a pick this year and Kevin Love..

                      Edit....This all gets done in preparation for the greatest flea market in the world.. the nba draft

                      There's no such thing as a 2nd round bust.

                        What struck me is how much he never really liked basketball..I think that's a common thread among "bust" guys in basketball and every sport really. Moreso treated as a job that he knew he should try and continue because it payed well. Many "normal" people can relate. Except, "pays well" for us is usually somewhere north of 6 figures. Darko made 52 million in 9 years never really having an impact and always being known as basically an underachieving failure in his field. 52 MILLION USA dollars, took em to Serbia, and now lives HIS ideal life in his early 30s while his contemporaries are living the dream in the NBA trying to put a bow on their legacies. Unbelievable really.

                          Good for him for being able to take his money and transition into something else, setting himself and his family up for the long haul. Too many depressing stories about athletes blowing that wealth or getting scammed by business partners/investment managers.

                            Yeah, smart to get the hell out of dodge and back to Serbia too. Too many hungry mouths and "long lost cousins" for these formerly poor athletes in the United States

                              I remember Reggie Evans talking about not a day going by without somebody asking him for something.

                                I was going to comment about how shocking it is that athletes and teams don't set guys up with legitimate banks to advise and take care of money but then I look around at business people/lawyers/bankers/accountants, etc. I know in Calgary and a lot of these guys have zero savings and are living paycheck to paycheck while earning close to seven figures or more.
