From this list of players, whom do you think is more likely to leave? And do you think those players would be suited for European basketball?

[jolbin]

Nate will get an offer from europe definently.. I think he will be a big bust there.. Barron would make a very very nice centre here i guess.. Also, Warrick would be a huge bust..
This is just too long list to write.. But most of them will stay in NBA definently..

[BarbaGrizz]

I think Adam Morrison should be a good player in Europe pace.
Hakim Warrick is a interesting prospect
I can´t see Nate Robinson been even a good backup. he would be abused by the euro guards
Jarvis Hayes is tempting. Big guard with range always do ok in europe

The others have some experience across the ocean or I can´t see they leaving NBA...

Who I think would leave......

Raymond Felton
Hakim Warick
Anthony Morrow
Kyle Lowry
Luther Head
Earl Watson
Ronnie Brewer (not in Memphis' plans; can probably get a big deal like Childress)
Carlos Arroyo
Darko Milicic (depends on what moves Minnesota makes - they draft a C and I think he leaves)
Sasha Pavlovic
Sergio Rodriguez (wants to stay in NBA but Real will offer enough to get him back in Spain)
JJ Redick (wants to stay but he would leave for the right price)
Patrick Mills
Rasho Nesterovic
Kyrylo Fesenko
Shaun Livingston (probably won't leave after having a solid ending to his season)
Fabricio Oberto

Like you said, most of them will stay in the NBA. However, with the free agents in Europe, I expect Olympiacos, Real Madrid, Barcelona, ect to look at signings in the NBA to stay competitive.

Teams that will be looking for NBA signings this summer are probably Olympiacos, Real Madrid, and possibly Efes. If I had to guess I would say Ilgauskas and Milicic will get looks from Olympiacos and Real and also Sergio from Real. I also think Barca, Olympiacos, and Real will try to get Rudy. But honestly I don't think that fits at all the signings Olympiacos would be looking for.

Real Madrid I think is looking for something like getting Rudy and Olympiacos is looking for something way bigger than that. Olympiacos also will not IMO be wasting anymore money on NBA players that can't be more than role players in Euroleague. Olympiacos won't be wasting more money on guys like Von Wafer and Jannero Pargo IMO.

To me this is the summer, either Real or Olympiacos, and most likely Olympiacos, that a big signing happens. Something much more significant than Childress. The Olympiacos owner has said over and over that he is going for a huge signing in the 2010 summer. He's been saying it for about 2 years now and he has talked about something much bigger than the Childress signing. Real Madrid is ready also to open their wallet up with a lot of money and they are looking for something big also, bigger than Rudy and if they can't get it they would probably settle for him. So we will see what happens.

I think these teams are looking at much bigger names than what is mostly on that list.

^^^ Well, I know Olympiacos will be looking at bigger names than those listed above. But I don't think they "realistically" have a chance at signing the top free agents.

Personally, I think the best shot Olympiacos or Real Madrid have this summer as far as making a big splash is Ray Allen or Jermaine O'Neal. If say, Olympiacos and Childress do enough posturing, they might have a slim chance at signing Joe Johnson.

I guess we'll get a better idea after the champ is done in Paris.

Joe Johnson? He has a shot at the NBA max contract, why would he go to Europe?

Notice I said "slim chance" which in basketball terms means unlikely.

I know what it means, I just missed it. Still, his case is the opposite of the usual NBA player who goes abroad, but I get what you're saying.
