Rockets pursuing Marc Gasol

Nola is a special case because they are treated special and the owner is the NBA. Once they have an owner deals like this will go through.

 

he isnt coming to houston, its only a dream fellas

 

Will they match a 1 year max offer? They potentially lose him next year w/o compensation.

 

I hope we do work something out but if we don't, Memphis better figure something out because in a few years they will be dropping 60 million a year on 3 players...on a small market team...and the owner's last name is not Cuban or Allen. You don't want to have to trade one of your big 3 in their prime for some expirings or a rare massive TE.

 

I guess the owner wants to see how far they go when gay is healthy. He will not trade imo because he needs to appease the fans what ifs about not having gay in the playoffs. If they dont have a successful season, hell be pullin the trigger in no time

 

I believe that the Frizzly's owner (Heisley??) is a billionaire. Whats a hundred million amongst frieds?

 

Marc has to sign our 1 year offer, before Memphis has to match. Otherwise its just an offer with no binding effect

 

yes, that's the plan.

 

If we offer 4 years max, Memphis will match and thanks Morey for it.

If we offer 1 year max, it forces Memphis to consider S&T

 

according to David Aldridge's twitter, Memphis is matching Rockets offer. Oh well.

 

I think Memphis is matching Rockets' offer because of this happening on Sunday:

Yates leads Texans to comeback win, AFC South title

CINCINNATI -- The Houston Texans have won the AFC South.
Led by their defense and rookie quarterback T.J. Yates, the Texans overcame a mistake-filled first half to rally for a last-second victory over the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday at Paul Brown Stadium. Yates threw the game-winning six-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Kevin Walter with two seconds remaining.

The Texans (10-3) won 20-19 after trailing 16-3 at halftime and, with the Tennessee Titans losing to the New Orleans Saints, clinched their first-ever division title and playoff berth.

Thanks for nothing Feigen.

 

He always seems a couple steps behind, doesn't he?

 

Offer sheets have to be for at least 2 years excluding option years.

 

As aelliot pointed out, you can't offer one year to an RFA.

 

any news on nene?

 

One year offer sheets are not allowed.

 

It's down to us and Nets apparently.

Still waiting on the Howard shoe to drop supposedly.

 

nope. he's thinking about signing with the nets
