From Strutter:
I'm not going to do a word-for-word translation (ain't nobody got time for that), but the gist of the article is:
- Barcelona comes out extremely happy with the deal, because they unload his contract and get the 650,000 buyout.
- According to the article Barça was "completely decided" on unloading Pleiss, because he didn't fit in well with their coach's schemes, and didn't want to continue paying his contract.
- The article makes it seem like his contract was pretty big, but I don't know enough background information on the euroleague to know that.
- Other European teams tried to make plays on Pleiss (including CSKA Moscow, according to rumors) but they were only willing to pay part of his contract (I'm a little unsure on that last part).
[*]They say that playing in the NBA was always Pleiss's greatest dream- The article says that the Jazz like his range and his wingspan, and that he arrived in UT on June 27th to talk about leaving for the NBA.
