Do you think signing Marc Gasol to 4-years, $55M is a good deal for the Rockets?

    Trade Martin and Scola for Gasol and Mayo; then amnesty Thabeet, and sign Nene.

    Can't see the Grizz just let Marc leave for nothing. I'm not holding my breath on this one.

    dump off a salary, amnesty somebody. Max offer Gasol. More than what Grizzlies can offer.

    That's correct.

    Something I'm wondering about. Pau knows he's probably going to Orlando in the Howard deal or possibly. Either Orlando or here. Perhaps the brother are talking about playing together.

    Marc may decide he wants to play with Pau and will push the Grizz to move him to us so that we can either trade him to Orlando or get Pau in trade from Orlando and pair them. Just a thought.

    Perhaps Orlando moves Dwight for Bynum/Gasol then trades Bynum to us for Marc or trades Pau to us for ancillary pieces around Bynum.

    The ONLY offer sheet Memphis would fear would be a ONE YEAR offer for the Max, thus making him an unrestricted free agent at the end of this year.

    I could see him signing something like that.

    The Grizz will just match the offer and keep Gasol. Centers are too hard to find these days, the Grizz will hold on to what they have.

    Basically Morey is doing a couple different things here -

    1. Helping Heisley get Gasol back to practice ASAP
    2. Showing Houston fans, Les, McHale that ... look I tried everything
    3. Throwing a hail mary pass on 4th and long with 1 second left in the game

    Of course they're going to say that. Test them with a frontloaded offer.

    Not enough! He needs to average 46 points, 24 rebounds, 5 assists and 7 blocks while shooting fg%83 to deserve to play in this Rockets.
