    What still doesn't make sense to me is why he signed a 4 yr 55 when offered a 5 year 75 unless there's something else more going on than just rfa (the whole guaranteed contracts really does give weight to someone saying, if u match it, you get 5 years of half assing)

    One, even if they do, it doesn't mean that Gasol won't demand a trade. Furthermore, we aren't any worse than when we started the season. Tanking is still quite a viable option...

    I agree, but don't see how that works financially.

    Part of our pitch to Nene is to pair with another big man.

    Pursuing Gasol would not piss him off.

    I would assume they want them to play together. Do i misunderstand your post?

    It's a waiting game until a piece for us materializes.
    It seems like a split at this moment that does not help us either.

    It is not really bad luck, it is the obvious move for Memphis to match.
