That is not the case with European teams. <BR/><BR/>Memphis ought to offer Navarro the Qualifying Offer (QO) to insure that they maintain his rights in case he ever does want to return to the NBA. Even if Memphis doesn't match the offer per se they can do a sign and trade to acquire assets for the future. Not offering Navarro would end our relationship with Navarro and he would be free to return to the NBA without the Grizzlies having any rights on the player.Chip Crainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03633190293643815540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8878605120366712244.post-15784371623838891932008-06-20T00:55:00.000-05:002008-06-20T00:55:00.000-05:00where's our compensation we have the rights to him...where's our compensation we have the rights to him no?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8878605120366712244.post-80635846704021272812008-06-19T02:44:00.000-05:002008-06-19T02:44:00.000-05:00Quite understandable: JCN hates losing!Quite understandable: JCN hates losing!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
