Andray Blatche Couldn't Care Less if He Gets Signed This Yea
Take this with a grain of salt. I just learned that Andray Blatche will earn $20M this year playing for the Philippine National Team.
As most know our basketball federation took great lengths in convincing him to be naturalized and obviously that came with a price.
That price is staggering but i have no doubts our basketball sponsor a billlionaire businessman can afford it.
Then againi, his salary will be exponentially higher than what the locals earn-- if this does not pan out, we would have paid a mercenary millions to be a disappointment in Spain.
Reports out of Miami where we held camp last week is that Blatche has been great and has so far proved his worth. According to rumors he'll work out for the Clippers next week which is impossible because he just flew to Spain to join the NT in real tune-up games. So at least he's committed so far.
For those who will diss Blatche because no NBA offer has been made yet; don't worry he's earning LeBron James money.
To add: at that price he better take us to the KO stages at least in the World Cup.

Good for him. I would go just about anywhere for 20 million.

Re: Andray Blatche Couldn't Care Less if He Gets Signed This
Although $20 million is still questionable, it would make more sense if it was a multi-year agreement. With Marcus Douthit already 34 and getting older, having Andray Blatche there for future FIBA competitions, 2015 FIBA Asia Chamionship next year (which they have to get gold), and then possibly qualifying for the 2016 Olympics.
Here's some footage of him scrimmaging.

Re: Andray Blatche Couldn't Care Less if He Gets Signed This
The figure is just about right.......but the currency might be off, that 20 mil might be in Peso which converts to about 500,000 american dollars, seems about right if it is paid in Peso.

He probably meant corrupt, which Afghanistan regularly ranks in the top 3 with North Korea and Somalia.
