    Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has a crush on Rudy Fernandez and during the last Euroleague Final Four played in Barcelona the guard was told that if he leaves the NBA, Madrid will open the doors for him, red carpet included.
    Perez wants Rudy to be the "Cristiano Ronaldo of basketball." It doesn't matter if he has to pay him a salary much higher than anyone else on the roster. He tried last summer and he couldn't make it. He's trying again.

    I have no problem seeing Rudy go but I'd rather get a 2nd Round pick then just letting him go scott free. Does anyone know if we would get any sort of compensation if we let him leave back to Spain?

    I like having Rudy on the roster, but the allure of a lot more money and being the LeBron of Spain is huge for him. I notice he's been going all over Spain and he is treated like a mega celebrity over there, so that makes him want to stay and play ball there instead.

    If he is going to go, I don't want him to go for nothing but after all that talk of only wanting to play for a couple of teams last off season, I don't know that many teams will be willing to give anything up for him.

    Rudy hustles. I'll give him that, but man where did your 3 point shot go Rudy? It's like trying to find Waldo amongst the masses!

    Right now, the most realistic is Asik. If Houston pursue D12, sign and trade JJ and a couple second round picks, maybe Joel Freeland or somebody for Asik.

    Nah, Washington would just sign him themselves, save them a pick. Also, no way JJ is worth a lottery pick. Oladipo would be great, for pretty much any team in the NBA. I don''t think it''s possible to get him though. Should focus on getting a defe...

    Jermaine O''Neal, Drazen, Z-Bo, Sheed (I know he was already a star but still). Also Drazen was buried under Drexler and Porter.

    What happens if we don''t win? Dwight will start his nonsense, we would be out a lot of money, and with no real talent to show for it. San Antonio and Memphis is proof that you don''t need superstars to win.
