A streetball legend, awesome player, has his own shoes, unstoppable, what is he doing in the NBL. It just doesn't seem right. Surely he's had way more lucrative offers and could compete at a higher level!?

He could play in Europe but I doubt he could make the NBA as his shot isn't very good.

i think the levels thru out the world indicate where players are....he may go to europe, but would he be able to do the outstanding job he does here? maybe/maybe not....here he is outstanding so he sticks it out..
i'm sure his agent looks into some of the options he has...
listen to Rillies latest episode of the OT he wants to stay here says he cant stand the euro lifestyle
I dont think he is that great.
Hasnt got a great shot. I dont think he played well here at the Dome before either.

Its pretty simple really... he does not want to be remembered merely as a street baller, but an actual pro basketballer.
He has played in Europe (and continues to do so), but very much enjoys the lifestyle down here.
So we should consider ourselves lucky we get to see his magic in our backwater league.

Yeah he's got his own signature shoe with k1x, who will give just about anyone with streetball roots a shoe deal.
Marketing ability doesn't make him a good player, this is the level he should be playing at.
When opposition PG's know how to guard him he's practically useless. I'm constantly surprised at how many players try to get into his face and go for steals on defence.

Has weeknesses.
They will/have stopped him doing anything big in Euro.
Goes Right 80-90% of the time and still invents a right hand shot even if he goes left.
Has a technically bad outside shot.
Defense is missing for periods as he rests in D to run at teams in Offence.
Very Ball hungry.
And has a terible Nick Name, that would get in him fights in bars all over europe
