Is playing European basketball a new replacement for the nba??

Question

what are your thoughts on so many NBA players moving to Europe to play basketball instead of playing in the nba?

Answer 1

replacement? nah.. its where the scrubs go to get bills and playing time they wont get in the nba

Answer 2

-NBA will adjust their cap space, or change something around some how or another, to reduce players from leaving, here in the near future.

-It's not a big deal when role player's are leaving, but if a big name like LeBron, Kobe, or D-Wade leaves it will really hure the NBA fan base.

Answer 3

It's a viable alternative for second tier players who want to make more money than they likely would in the NBA. Players will also use it as a negotiating point to try to pressure NBA teams to offer them more desirable contracts.

Answer 4

no it just pays a lot more, some people are doing it in the offseason so they stay at the top of their game, its not really a replacement as it is a training

Answer 5

If that's going to get them paid ,then they should go for it!!

Answer 6

If you're a bench player and you want to double or triple your salary, pack your bags for Eastern Europe foooo sho!
