the beacons will be lit and the armies will come to his aid

it means some european team or his agent worked together with cleveland to void his previous contract (has nba exit clause) to get him. kind of a dick move. whoever signs him next will become the enemy of real madrid.

It exposed a loophole in the Euro basketball leagues allowing players to get out of their contracts whenever they want if their agent has NBA connections. Very alarming.

Somehow this signing was the linchpin holding together the European economic area and schengen area, if they release him it all goes to shit

They’re going to overturn the data! For gods sake, man

All quiet on the Cleveland front

Cavs releasing him will trigger the condition of a whole set of military alliances that will give start to ww3

What do you mean by alarm will be raised in Europe?

It would be more normally translated as “If this rumor is confirmed, it will upend the current situation and trigger alarm across Europe.”

Basically they triggered his NBA escape clause in his contract, only for the NBA to turn around and release him so now he’s effectively a free agent. That’s not how it’s supposed to work.

WW3 over one waiving. One waiving that created a domino

Apologies as an American, but is 2.06 meters European for 31 years?

(11.32 kilodays)

probably doing a favor to the agent. he could only upt out of his contract with Madrid for an NBA-Team. he did that, they waved him and he how can go and sign with Dubai.

My mind immediately goes to “paying off an overdue favor to an agent that they regularly do business with”.

Pro Tip: If there’s a move that — in a vacuum — doesn’t make any sense, that’s usually the answer.

Analytically they gain everything 

Even the Cavs can have aspirations.

Curry favour with hezonja’s agent?

Yeah I don’t get it either. Didn’t they have to buy him out of his contract to get him ?

Perhaps the Saudis are compensating them to act as the intermediary?

Nothing and it is fake. This isn’t real and this fake report has been going for 24 hours already.

We’re going to get word real soon of Rocket Mortgage getting some funding from Dubai sources

So he used his NBA exit clause to get out of his contract with Real Madrid so an NBA team can sign and waive him, making him a free agent and letting him sign for Dubai?

This wasn’t like a training camp contract or a 10 day either, it was a 1-year deal so I wonder if it was fully guaranteed? He just got 2.8 million for free?

2.06 meters

He couldn’t leave his team for Dubai and had only an exit clause for the NBA. You put two and two together.

Probably a mistranslation since the site is Greek

Bad translation.
More or less, it’s something like: “If this is confirmed, things are about to change and will cause a huge stir”.

Maybe they mean an alarm for European professional players signing contracts with the NBA?

I’m sure Giannis made a call too

Does he make any money out of this lol

Nick Nurse breathing a sigh of relief that the real LeBron stopper is gone

He was on the Blazers already. No thanks

Throw Jahlil Okafor in there

Blazers already had him. In fact, Blazers are probably part of the reason for his “lack of respect” comments and hating the NBA before. Kind of traded him for Enes Kanter and he got waived shortly after.

Cavs are undefeated with him on their roster. Retire his jersey

I’d take this with a pinch of salt for now tbh, there are conflicting reports about this saga

Seems like it, but I can’t see how from the NBA side. Teams in Europe will probably put clauses in contracts saying that the player actually has to play for the NBA team they sign with or their contracts become unvoided

Yes

He works for the owners. He’s not a sheriff.
