Woj: Pau Gasol to opt out and re-sign long-term with Spurs

[baseline bum]

Wonder who they have targeted. Vencenie suggssted a S&T of Simmons for Rubio, maybe throw in the 29. I wouldn't mind that.

I wouldn't trade Fathead for Scrubio

[Chinook]

Pau might be dodging a trade. Hoping Minny backs up a truck for Gasol and lets the Spurs off. That said, I don't appreciate the Spurs using cap space for the third year in a row. It's getting really tight at this point.

Rubio??? off

[RD2191]

Pau, he turned US down when he was actually still useful. Hopefully the Spurs tell him to off.

Rubio??? off

LOL going after a point guard who shoots in the high 30s.

This.

What do you think he will resign for? 12? 8?

Probably looking for something like 3 years, $35 million.

[ernest787]

Im hoping for a 3 year / $24m

[dylankerouac]

S for 3/35 what can the team do with an extra ~4 mil this year?

[NASpurs]

Hopefully the Spurs turn the lights off at their offices and change their phone numbers when Pau and his agent come knocking to resign.

[Venti Quattro]

Same reason why Pau would opt out....

Red wants to get paid and Pau Gasol wants to be retained on a winning team

No way. 4 milion in cap space this offseason is not worth the hasle. It have to be 8-9 mil annualy tops

[TimDunkem]

everyone in this thread who suggested stashing the 29th pick of the deepest draft in years, or trading for Ricky Scrubio.

Lol. With him gone we just have LA and David. For 12 or 8 he may be worth it depending on the market which is usually too much $$$ anyway.

This.
The declining geezers frontline plan has been a major fail since 2008.

[coachmac87]

Red wants to get paid and Pau Gasol wants to be retained on a winning team

Or Red could want to win as well?? Expect the unexpected....

Green will be traded
Spurs will stash or trade their 1st

CP3 is Plan A

[Joseph Kony]

no ing way

[Spur|n|Austin]

Didn't see that coming from Pau, solid move by the Spainaird.

I doubt he's about giving up money. If he didn't care about being paid he would have come to San Antonio in the summer of 2014.

[Spurs9]

Can we plz offer him $3million a year so he walks?

[TimDunkem]

We're soon about to lose TP (or at least a slightly productive TP), Manu, Gasol is re-signing, we're losing Simmons, are thin at center and the guard positions, and have low upside players in Forbes and Fathead - and people want the 29th pick of the deepest draft in years traded or stashed?

Morons.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

The Pau and Lee news hitting like this is a signal the Spurs have their man/men.
