Don't look now but the logic that somehow McCalebb isn't worth x euros because he only had one good season. Guess what? The same thing is true about Maric. Unlike Maric though, McCalebb didn't miss a key part of the season like Maric did. I'm not saying I know what is a fair salary for McCalebb I'm just saying it should be the same thing with McCalebb as it is with Maric. Bo was the starting point guard on a Final 4 Euroleague team. PG and center are probably the 2 most important positions on a team.

Salary is dictating by the market for the player. The only team I can imagine interested in him for that salary is Barcelona or Siena. He won't go to Barcelona because that club's coach is bound by contract to play Rubio a certain amount of minutes.
That leaves Siena. Siena could pay him even up to 1.8 to 1.9 if they wanted to. But the problem is that Siena already has Zisis and they like how he plays when he has big minutes and gets to start. That's his issue, he is great with big minutes and is awful if he plays limited minutes. So they might just try it with Zisis, who already has a very big salary for a backup at 900k.
For his asking price of 1 million, he should target Siena, but they might now want him at that much simply because they already have Zisis. They were already sort of forcing McIntyre out for Zisis. Just think McIntyre only got 1.3 per season and he was twice all Euroleague first team point guard and had 3 great Euroleague seasons.
So McCalleb is definitely demanding a lot for what he has proven. I don't know maybe PAO or Olympiacos would sign him for that amount. They both need a point guard. Here is the thing though........Bo wants to play huge minutes and get huge stats so he can showcase for the NBA. He would probably play 15 minutes a game in a club like PAO or Olympiacos and would have limited stats. Thus, the NBA would forever right him off instantly. Just the way the moronic NBA managers and scouts are.
So, we will see what happens. Right now I think Siena is his best bet, but he might still be asking for too much for what they want to pay.

I won't be surprise, if McCalebb will sign in Maccabi.

He wants 1 million euro net. I'm not sure they would do it. I think Arroyo only got about 1.2-1.3
