Great insight into the way things work at Partizan! I thought that with a new sponsor in place the need to sell players would stop. Many teams with a stable budget retain their best players every year. If Partzan take the Maric money and their sponsorship money together couldn't they keep Roberts and McCalebb at a reasonable figure? Kecman at the 2, Vesley at the 3, Roberts at the 4, and Bo at the 1 could compete for a Euroleague championship.
Regarding Maric, If I were looking for a center I would pay more for Maric at 28 minutes than Sofo for 20 minutes!

I believe Roberts already signed with Fenerbache. But I'm not sure.
It also seems that PAO got Maric for an â¬800,000 buyout. Maric now belongs to PAO. They are just working on his salary amount now. That buyout should help Partizan a lot.
PAO's roster is ridiculous:
PG Diamantidis/Calathes/Verginis
SG Nicholas/Tepic
SF Sato/Perperoglou
PF Fotsis/Kaimakoglou/Tsartsaris
C Maric/Batiste/Vougioukas
Bogris and Shermadini would go out on loan I would assume. That leaves just either to let Calathes handle 15-20 minutes of playing time or to re-sign Saras.
Every weakness from before is fixed. Except with the loss of Spanoulis is created a new weakness at guard. We will see if they try to get one more player.
