OT: Pargo signs with Russia
Another NBA player going overseas for more coin. I didn't read anything about him contemplating signing there, so this was a little bit of a surprise to me.

Oh, wow, didn't see that one coming. I thought he was all but signed with the Spurs. Where did you see it? Let me guess - Dynamo Moscow? They've been trying to sign a combo guard all summer. Made offers to Delonte West and Flip Murray, but both decided to stay in the NBA. He fit the bill. I know a Greek team whose name I will never be able to spell was also looking for another American guard. Spurs were offering to pay him $1.5 million, so he probably got twice that to go overseas.

Not to mention Vladimir Putin, anyone who's followed international politics over the last 3 years must be wary of the dangerous threat he poses. He's trying to turn Russia into either a dictatorship or a communism(see, "appointing" somebody as president and then getting the Prime Minister seat)

Re: OT: Pargo signs with Russia
Good move for him. He's worth more than the offers he was getting. Anyone else notice the trend of tying up the big money on a chosen few and trying to get very serviceable players to play for the minimum? It seems to be getting worse.
