Woj: Besiktas (Turkish team that signed Deron Williams) to make offer to Kobe
Seems crazy, right? Especially for a team that has faced past accusations of not paying its players.
However, it sounds like the issues Besiktas has had in the past won't be a problem, since they're having sponsors pay for the contracts of the NBA'ers they're bringing aboard. And a team with D-Will, Pachulia and Kobe would absolutely decimate every other club competing in EuroCup(imagine Nando DeColo trying to guard Kobe, lol). Now, will any teams in the higher-level Euroleague competition step up and start making offers to NBA guys?

This should be the trend for awhile as the lockout rages on. Even here in my country some of the rich patrons are willing to pony up the cash to have NBA stars come over and play exhibition games.

Deron and Kobe on a Turkish team together? They could play 15 minutes a game at 50% speed and put most of their games away early.
But it’s probably not happening.
