The Italian coach wants Pablo Prigioni to run the team as he sees in him a solid organizer that combines all the virtues of a true point guard.
The problem is that Tau's Chairman Querejeta, after he saw the interest that many teams have shown in the 32-year old Argentinean decided to excercise the team's option to renew for one more season in order to cash in some buyout for the player's departure.
This forces Messina to keep an open eye on other players like J.R. Holden and Terrell McIntyre. The first is a free agent, but already seems to have a good offer from Olympiacos, and for the second, his team Siena seems to be asking for a 2 million buyout.
