The only players that really end up there besides Europeans that are too scared to play NBA style game, is either players that don't have enough talent to make big bucks here, or older players that are washed up but still want to make big bucks. Whatever happened to Marbury wanting to go to Europe and finish his career?

Marbury said that he would go after his contract is up.

I wish the C's would offer the Ricky Davis the LLE. He was a solid player here.

In Greece, can a player get a rebound by purposely throwing the ball off his own backboard? 

hahah TP  Hopefully someone could punch him without getting suspended in a Greek league.

overseas, where this happens:

If reports are correct, the LLE is spent on O'Bryant.

Ricky Davis has been the man on multiple losing teams. He's allergic to playing a role, and the whole team had to tiptoe around him when he was our sixth man because he thought he had the talent to be a starter. Any questions why Ginobili has more rings than Ricky Davis?

The way the US dollar is going, NBA players soon might want to play in Toronto for the Canadian loon instead.  (1 US dollar to 1.0069 Canadian).
 
The euro is kicking the US dollar's butt (1.58USD to 1EUR).

Ginobli plays with Tim Duncan. If he played in Ricky's spots, he'd have as many rings as Ricky.  Davis accepted the 6th Man role here willingly, even though he WAS more talented than the starter, who was first Jiri Welsch and then Tony Allen.  You're either mistaken, or making things up as you go along.

I don't think he accepted the 6th man role willingly. But at least he had the decency not to frown publicly, though there is really no telling what happened in the locker room. Either way, Ginobili isn't less talented than the calcified remains of Mike Finley, so this point remains moot. What's best for the team is a matter of match-ups and chemistry, not always individual talent.

Also, Tony Allen has always been a more capable and consistent defender than Ricky Davis. Even more so pre-injury.

the rings has nothing to do with it. ginobli is a much better player than davis which is not determined by genetics but rather by work ethic.

btw, why is a ricky davis topic under celtics talk?
