    Teletovic and Deron Williams have the same agent. Just saying.

    Is he supposed to be a trade chip? Or Dwight's complement in the frontcourt? I like this guy, but I think he got paid a bit too much considering he was undrafted.

    I stopped believing highlights. The guy is a 6'9 Bosnian. In the NBA that translates to a 6'5 High School JV Player. He can definitely shoot, based on the highlight. What's the scoop on this guy?

    I think overpaid.

    He's a decent player. Led the Euroleague in scoring, although technically he didn't play enough games to qualify. Doesn't do much other than shoot. People used to knock him for being a big time chucker. I watched a game or two of his last season, so I can't really say if that's still the case.

    He's basically a slightly bigger, better shotting, Powerforward-yer version of Linas Kleiza.

    I doubt there was a great market for him out there, so he most definitely got overpaid.

    What's important to note is that now the Nets hit a hard cap of 74 million. Which now totally eliminates any possibility that they could take back Duhon or Hedo or one of Orlando's contracts.

    Which is exactly why they need a 3rd team. For the Nets sake, they better hope a contender out there wants Davis or Duhon and is willing to give younger guys or picks up for them.

    Here we go, although I don't know if this would work with Williams, Johnson, and Wallace on the Nets.

    As I am Bosnian I can give you some insight about Mirza

    he is a decent player, but at 16 mil might be a bit overpriced

    very good from the three point line, moves well, somewhat atheltic

    might be a bit better than Sasha pavlovic

    He's not even close to being the best player in Europe.

    They need a point guard, and I think they want to get rid of Blair.

    I'm just throwing out ideas to be honest.

    Duhon isn't better than Gary Neal or Corey Joseph. And they aren't throwing in Splitter and Bonner to trade Blair for his clone.

    He is probably 2nd best Power Forward in Europe, behind Lorbek.

    I am surprised someone would say that on Clutchfans! Where Sergio Llull is the 2nd coming of Jesus!

    Sasha Pavlovic shouldn't even be in the league (if he is). Sounds like a terrible signing.
