No SHved? I do hope they can find a Euro PG and I've mentioned Milos before.

Quincy Miller is another Euroleague player that deserves a SL?Camp invite in my opinion. He is in the mold of Aminu or Harkless but longer and taller. He may not be as good defensively but he is growing in that area and has become a shot blocker. Just getting him on a Wroten like deal but for 3 years would be smart.

Thanks for this! Was wondering if there were any Euro FA guards we could look at. Nando De Colo is very interesting. I have heard that name before.

I'm going on the assumption that Hernangomez is coming over.

De Colo would be my choice as a Euro PG import because he's played in the NBA. If he really has refined his shooting I would really take a serious look at him. Absorbing the SA atmosphere during his stint over here is also a plus, IMO.

EnySpree: Can we agree to agree not to mention Phil Jackson and triangle for the rest of our lives?

Shved signed a 3yr deal with no opt out if I remember right.

Oh, you're correct! I wonder if the Knicks give him a call this summer. Opt out for the NBA.

Wow we could have dumped Lou and saraphin and brought over the missing piece to the backcourt in shved.

Shved is perfect for the triangle and would have preferred shved over AA all day long .

I thought that was phils biggest blunder last off season not bringing back our best backcourt player in shved

Teodosic is flat out one of the best passers in the game... ot just Europe but generally.
Hes a good shooter with the ability to make clutch shots and would be crazy fun to watch especially with KP as a Knick.

Now... its questionalble how hed cope with the quicker and more athletic guards on D in the NBA.
I would prefer him over almost any FA PG out there right now but see zero chance for this to happen!

Nando de Colo on the other side will/should end up in the NBA next year or the year after... hes still young and has really developed his skill set in the past years!

I would be fine with both!

So CSkA Moscow basically have two of the best guards in Europe. I too think Teodisic is the better player but Colo probably would be the easier get. It would be cool to buyout Teodisic and then get Colo too since he is a FA.

We still have Wroten and Jerian so we can't go ape **** signing all the best European point guards. I do like Milos and Colo.... signing one would be interesting, but then you have to say good bye to being a factor in free agency at guard. I think right now with Jerian and Wroten we just need one more guard to fill out the group now

Colo is more of a SG than PG I think. He has secondary ball handling skills but I think Teodisic is more of a pure pg.

A PG of interest is Nemanja Nedović. He has some GS history and from everything I could find looks to be ready for the big leagues.
