Extremely grateful for my time with @Valenciabasket. Great players, coaches, and fans. Just decided it was best to give NBA one more try.
Great news. Hope it works out.
Someone had tweeted that the Lakers are not involved, must be OKC.
OKC raised...
That team is hurting with injuries.
Buycks will help. If he stars, I will be amazed.
Call ups very rarely "star", so I believe everyone would be amazed.
Is DB still getting paid by the Raptors?
I don't believe so. He opted out so he could play in Spain. I don't believe he is property of Toronto. I was hoping he'd be signed by now, kind of a gamble to ditch a gig for one that is t guaranteed.

My guess is if he is buying out his contract in Spain he is getting a guaranteed deal in the NBA. Can't see him doing it otherwise......

The trail has gone cold. I hope he didn't make a mistake....
It was IWB, renowned premature ejaculator. When will he learn it is about being correct not first.

The Euro sites are suggesting it was more of Buycks not fitting in with Valencia than him wanting to give the NBA another shot...

Actually, Byucks tweeted it himself....
Twitter seems to indicate Orlando and Memphis could be in the picture as well.

I hear Europe cooled on him.

Yes?
Thank you for doing this. It makes me laugh every time.
I remain shocked that Buycks spent an entire season with an NBA team.
Aside from that brain fart against 'Ville, I enjoyed watching him in his Warrior days, but I never, ever, ever thought of him as NBA material.

Not a done deal until there are 287 haikus about it, each pointing to a different team.

Looks like the feeling was mutual, sounds like Dwight was not happy, and the Valencia coach expected more. Both sides felt the separation was professional, and hope to move on in other directions.
So when did Buycks sign with either the Thunder or Lakers? I must have missed it.
