Grizzles offers 46 millons for 5 years to Noce

Don't know if this is already somewhere...

The longer the Grizzlies wait, however, the more attractive a Bulls offer that already is on the table could become. A source said the Bulls' five-year offer starts near $6.3 million to $6.4 million for the first season.

Factoring in a 10.5 percent increase of the first season's salary annually, the total package sits at approximately $38.1 million to $38.7 million. The Bulls could increase that offer and also would have seven days to match any offer sheet Nocioni signed with Memphis...

General manager John Paxson has vowed to match any offers for his hyperactive forward. Per the collective bargaining agreement, the Bulls are allowed to offer Nocioni a six-year contract...

And Paxson has vowed not to lose Nocioni for nothing. There are no indications the Grizzlies will make Gasol available.

Why not EARL BOYKINS....I believe he's a free agent this year. We could do w/o Nocioni if we were able to pick up Boykins and drop Beano.

Boykins replace Noc?? lol

"Even if the Grizzlies reached a $46 million offer that was reported erroneously in the Argentine media, the Bulls would have seven days to match because they still own his rights."

Olé insists with the $46 million figure. It says it'd be a contract starting at $8 million. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

where's that google translation that makes us crazy? I don't undertand half of the article:D

what about Gasol? will he be staying in Memphis too?
