This is good. Hopefully he plays for Barca and recruits Rubio to the cause.

Hopefully he stays there...

I think his body could use the time off, to fully heal up.

With most players, I'd say to keep playing would be good for them, i may argue the opposite though, for Jose.

the number of games in a season is way smaller in Europe. With that in mind i have no problem with Jose doing his thing across the Atlantic.

Well this is good I guess

not true... Look at my Žalgiris. (Euroleague, Lithuanian league, Lithuanian domestic cup, Baltic basketball league, VTB United League). Just count it, 5 different competitions... If I am right, they already played ~55 games and the post season not even started yet...
But the point is, he will play less minutes there, thats for sure. I see him playing in Spain. Barca Already has great Jaka Lakovic, young Rubio, Real has Pablo Prigioni, Caja has Huertas and so on... Best Euro teams are all deep.

that's a fair correction martynas. I was only thinking of the 'domestic league' season and not the extra cups and leagues that comes with Euro ball.

I'm sure Real and Caja would replace those players with caldy in a second. As for the numbers of games you're right even if the season is much less stressfull imo

if we get to draft Irving, can we trade him?

Prigioni - yes, but not Huertas, he is better than Caldy imo, especially in Europe..
