    Dang, I got roasted on the Pau comment lmao.

    Haven't been keeping up with the Spurs! I thought he was just coming off the bench either bc he's "DNP-old" or due to injuries here and there (also bc old). Sucks that he isn't starter material, any more.

    Why has Buford and Pop even kept this dinosaur around?

    38-year-old has-been should be on team friendly deal like the mid-level exception, not $16 million per with another year to go.

    That's DEAD MONEY.... like buried six feet underground dead. Good luck trying to recover anything of value from Gasol's rotting carcass.

    Probably to get any Gasol offspring, cousins, relatives to join them later. Those incentives.

    You never know, they are talented.

    I wish people that are rockets fans stop asking for this guy. This guy didn't want to come to Houston before now folks want him here now plus he's washed up! I don't want any player that didn't or doesn't want Houston.

    Spurs would have to throw in a first round pick.

    Anybody watching the Bucks regularly? Only seen a handful of games but wondering if he is an insurance signing or would he be taking minutes from anyone. I don't see the minutes for him with their roster already jammed with PFs and Centers.

    Yes he will be taking the leftover minutes of DJ Wilson. Mirotic already threw him almost out of the rotation and now he won't have anything left. But it will be good because maybe Lopez now can take some more rest. The team is already coasting for about three weeks now.
    The rotation will be like this
    Lopez/Ilyasova/Pau
    Giannis/Mirotic/Ilyasova/DJ Wilson

    Anyway as long as he isn't a malcontent crying about touches and minutes this move is without much importance.

    Thinking of Pau Gasol always brings to mind the baritone-to-a-shriek he emits whenever trying to get a call. Like Daddy Ostrich being kicked in the joyas de familia. Nearly two decades in the NBA and he's still at it.

    I guess the bucks have passed the rockets as the place for washed up stars.
