Thanks for the link. It does sound like teams such as Olympiacos can make incredibly enticing offers that could lure players away from the NBA but I think it will only be players who are disgruntled or at a stalemate with their NBA teams as Josh Childress was, at least to begin with. The top NBA players will probably see enough money and enough perks of being a star in the NBA to look elsewhere.

Some of those games don't seem to be very well attended.

Yeah, the article states how small the places they play at are.
I particularly enjoyed the 'culture shock' that he experienced when finiding out the team didn't want him to score 30, 40 points a game.

Not just that though, in one of the clips the venue seems to be almost empty.

Oh true. I didn't watch the clips so didn't know.

Yea, my eyes kept resorting back to his teeth in that video.
But after looking at his profile pic on the side, you should be glad he at least shaved off that stupid mustache.

Ditto.
With the salary he's getting you have to wonder why he doesn't spend it on fixing his teeth.
from the article, wrote:Oh, and one more thing: The referees do not protect scorers in this league. Essentially, it's no autopsy, no foul.
I miss that in the NBA.
