washed up Pau - if Marc were a FA he'd be more the one for the Spurs
Mutual interest between Spurs and Shawn Marion.
washed up Pau - if Marc were a FA he'd be more the one for the Spurs
This is the guy we tryin to sign??
SMH
Why he fanning Blake's ass? srs
I don't want Shawn Marion anywhere near the spurs. We have plenty of old veterans on this team already.
As far as Gasol...if he came to the Spurs, he would have been looking at something else besides fame and money. If he doesn't come to the Spurs, well...he's not really Spurs material.
Yeah, I like you TSpence. Even if you're making things up. That was right to his chin.
I am pissing him off so much, lol
Why did you want Don's wife?
Sad that this thread has to die.
How long is Pau's contract?
Please revive this thread a few years later.
sad when Pau goes full -made Granger and shows he's not spurs material with this decision. must be so embarrassing signing with the bulls, b/c it lets everyone know you're of a weaker caliber.
least diaw has the balls to join a tight ship and work his ass off to develop and fit the scheme. oh well, never really had a lot of respect for Pau or his game to begin with, just thought he was gonna nut up for the foreign legion. Marc on the other hand....
I think he fell asleep on defense and was dreaming about chasing a rabbit.
Exactly - you play basketball for winning and love or do you play for money. Pau chose money. No big loss. Still leaves Chicago with terrible defense, and surprisingly a worse rebounder in Pau. They shed a terrible contract and sign what could be a semi-terrible contract. Chicago is still left with a soft player at that position.
Until the information changes, Gasol took less money to play in Chicago, and far less than the Lakers offered him. Either he needed to get out of the western conference, or he just REALLY hated playing with Kobe.
Sucks that the Spurs didn't get him, but OKC not getting him is a big enough win right now.
Only a verbal commitment.. things can change.. But until then he's from Spain.. huff said
It's good to be a Spurs fan. As for TSpence, kudos for him to trolling this site in the most persistent, entertaining fashion since.... ever. , slamming Don Harris was worth reading this thread alone.
TSpence - If you're reading this, its time to stop. Game over, you had a nice thing going there with a decent guessing-streak but enough is enough. Know when to walk away.
Quite simple really, he did want to be on the team that prevents his brother from potentially making the playoffs. Pau wanted to be on the other side of the bracket, just on the very remote chance there's a Memphis/Chicago Finals.
Hasn't he been in the position to do that for a great deal of his career?![]()
He has always stated he wanted to play with his brother. I guess them signing Randolph to an extension made him realize that is just a pipe dream.. because no way in Chicago gets rid of Noah.. no matter what.
The Chicago Bulls and Los Angeles Lakers have been working on a sign-and-trade package to bringPau Gasol to the Bulls on a multiyear contract that starts at approximately $10 million a year, league sources told Yahoo Sports.
If a sign-and-trade doesn't come together, the Bulls will sign Gasol to a multiyear deal with a salary starting in the $6.5 million-a-year range, sources said. To clear some salary-cap room, the Bulls will trade center Greg Smith to the Dallas Mavericks, sources told Yahoo Sports' Marc Spears on Saturday.
So the prick possibly went to the Bulls for 1 million more a year, could be 5, either way, he chose money, he chose $ to go to LA, he's a turd who is on the decline and sucks at defense. Not needed, play Baynes.
I still don't see how the bulls can sign him to anything more than the MLE unless boozer is amnestied
They have to go through the amnesty process with Boozer to create the cap space to sign Pau.
They haven't started that yet. I suppose they're still trying to find someone that wants him, but they'll have to give up soon. I think the deadline to file the amnesty is July 16th.
Greg Smith gets paid nothing. That's not going to help. Again, until something substantial changes, like Boozer getting amnestied, Gasol's taking a pay cut to go to Chicago.
