    A Spanish article claimed the Rockets were going to make a run at Llull after the Olympics. There's no need for that now.

    I could see them still doing it depending on which guys are traded (and for who) before the season begins. Llull is kind of a combo guard. I think he'd be a good 6th man type.

    Why not? Llull is a combo guard.

    So I'm still confused, do we pay Lin 5,5,15 or 8,8,8?

    Actual salary Lin will receive will be 5, 5, 15
    Salary Cap hit will be 8, 8, 8

    Still wouldn't be that big of a deal. Just means the pg position will be solid. IIRC, I don't think llull minded coming off the bench, he just wanted consistent minutes if he were to come over.

    I should save that tweet for when we trade him as an expiring contract.
