I know it is still early, but since my team is already out of the euroleague, i spend some time thinking what changes should be made in the off-season. So just post what roster changes you would like to see in your team this summer.
players with * having ending contracts
Diamantidis* stay! he's the team's starting pg and still 29 yo
Jasikevicius* he has an option to renew. if he should stay will depend on the greek playoffs
Spanoulis* out! he is the first player i want to see out of pao. i do however believe that management will renew him unfortunately
Calathes stay. he's still under contract anyway
Verginis stay and loaned out
Nicholas* stay. i really like his performance in comparison to what i expected when he was signed. he has also improved his d a lot
Tepic stay. let's see if he will develop as most people expected
Perperoglou* stay. he has an option. he should stay but not as starting sf
Tsartsaris* out. he's a done player despite being only 30
Haislip stay. i can't say i'm the biggest fan, but he's a decent player
Fotsis stay
Batiste* stay. he's getting older, but he still has to offer
Pekovic stay. he has an nba opt-out and his manager said early in the season that he'll be going to use it. i believe he will stay anyway
Shermadini stay and be loaned out. if he wasn't under contract i would say out as he is not developing as expected
Bogris stay. i would say out if he wasn't under contract. he should be loaned out however
that leaves the team with
PG
Diamantidis
Calathes
(jasikevicius)
SG
Nicholas
Tepic
SF
Perperoglou
PF
Fotsis
Haislip
C
Pekovic
Batiste
In this case the backcourt looks decent and the other positions need reinforcement imo
so i would like to see, nachbar or sato (free agent) for starting SF, Maric at C especially if pekovic leaves and at SF/PF Kirilenko. Far fetched? not really. Kirilenko has one year left on his contract and earns 17m dollars. that is about 10mil net. So his last year in this contract is worth about 7.5 mil euro right now. Now the Jazz wouldn't mind cutting that off their budget i think and as for Kirilenko, he can't expect to be offered anything close to that when his contract ends. So if a european team comes along and offers him a 3-year deal for 5-6mil euro net per year, given that he has already stated that he wants to return to europe, i expect him to seriously consider it.
so there you have my wish roster for next season:
PG
Diamantidis
Calathes
(jasikevicius)
SG
Nicholas
Tepic
SF
Nachbar (Sato)
Perperoglou
PF
Kirilenko
Fotsis
Haislip
C
Pekovic
Maric
Batiste
