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

    I think Max for Marc is only twelve million.

    If we sent Scola and 5-6 million in salary, Rockets could have money for Nene as well.

    Can we still go after Nene if we offer the max to Gasol?

    Obviously the title was supposed to read "close in on Marc."

    I love this deal for the Rockets if we can make it happen. He is already a very good player and is young with the potential to grow. Now to wonder who the sign and trade will involve... I'm guessing Martin will be sent elsewhere whether it is in this trade or another.

    Has to be Martin to match Salaries...right?

    Would that still allow for Nene?

    I'm not nearly as big a fan of Marc as I am of Pau or Nene. In fact, salaries being equal, I'd much rather have Nene.

    We'll see what's really going on here soon.

    The Rockets are working to sign Marc Gasol to a 4 year, $55M offer sheet, sources tell Y! Memphis would have 3 days to match, or lose him.

    Centers are always going to be overpaid compared to their production. Its the simple economics of supply and demand.

    Kevin Martin would be ideal player to ship out.

    Memphis is probably inclined to match the sheet, but if not, they can work a sign-and-trade with Rockets to get something for Gasol.
