The big dawgs are going after Pau Gasol....Spurs and Heat
Pau Gasol speaks to Heat president Pat Riley

Yahoo Sports By Adrian Wojnarowski 33 minutes ago
Free-agent center Pau Gasol had a telephone conversation with Miami Heat president Pat Riley on Tuesday and could talk again with the franchise in the near future, league sources told Yahoo Sports.
The cost for Gasol could still be prohibitive for the Heat, but there's little doubt he could be an intriguing part to a supporting cast in Miami. So far, Gasol is still pushing for a $10 million-$12 million annual salary, league sources said.
The NBA champion San Antonio Spurs have inquired with Gasol's agent Arn Tellem, expressing an interest, sources said, but the Spurs can't become a legitimate suitor unless Gasol significantly drops his asking price.
Gasol met with Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak in Los Angeles on Tuesday, and ultimately they could become his best chance to get his asking price, if only on a one-year contract.
Gasol has spent the past six seasons with the Lakers, where he averaged 17.4 points and 9.7 rebounds last season.

He's not making Klay expendable. The loss of Klay would be more than offset by the addition of Love if they trade for him. With Love they'd need to slow down a bit anyway, and Curry can still run with Iguodala.
If they're serious about winning they'll have to focus more on the half court sets anyway. I'm just speculating, but to me Curry and Love is better than Curry and Klay. If you want to win with a backcourt, they better be HOF caliber players.
For some reason, I thinks that's pretty much how it went down. Now lets see if Bosh goes to Houston. That would be hilarious.
Shaun Livingston signed with Golden State for 3years $16 million.
Not sure that's an ideal fit but im glad for him.
And I still say no fucking way Bosh signs for 11per.
Props to him dude came a long way man nothing but respect for that dude he deserve that bread
Ink ain't even dry and y'all ninjas clowning

While at the facility, sources say that Rose went through a private workout to show Anthony that he’s healthy and ready to compete at a high level next season. Basketball Insiders
After meeting at the facility and discussing the team’s pitch, the group went to dinner at the Peninsula Hotel in downtown Chicago. Anthony, Noah, Rose, Gibson, Thibodeau, Jerry Reinsdorf, Gar Forman and Scottie Pippen were all in attendance at the dinner, according to sources. The Bulls left the meeting and dinner feeling very confident that Anthony is seriously considering signing with Chicago, according to sources close to the situation.

AKA lemme dump my problem players/shitty decisions on somebody else
What makes him a problem player? I've never really heard him being a problem player. I know him and Rudy didn't see eye to eye, outside if that I'm not sure.
Problem in the sense of not being good fits for their respective teams. Really referring more to Eric Gordon, OJ Mayo, and Javale Mcgee. I think those signings were regrettable.
I wouldn't want any of them, but I guess Mayo is the best of the bunch.
But McGee makes fuckin 11 mil a year, and didn't even fuckin start last year
Exactly
@Disabled Rose playing one on one with ghost to show he's healthyWithout Disabled Rose Chicago is still better than the Snickers
Great work Mask.
Knew that was going to happen like that. big men get paid in this league and 60 million is the average.
I'm happy for Livingston and wish him luck. Also Golden State is now in the hard cap. Golden State missed Jack last season and tried over and over to find a replacement
Jodie Meeks 20 million okayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Despite the Indiana Pacers' heartfelt movie tribute and presentation to Lance Stephenson, the two sides are currently at an impasse over a new deal, according to sources close to the situation.
ESPN
Lance Stephenson, whose unusual tactics made headlines during the Eastern Conference finals against the Heat, averaged a career-high 13.8 points, 7.2 rebounds and 4.6 assists last season .
The Pacers offered a five-year, $44 million contract to Stephenson, but sources said the versatile shooting guard believes he's worth much more.
Stephenson averaged 13.8 points, 7.2 rebounds and 4.6 assists last season -- all career-highs for the four-year player.
"Lance and his representatives aren't sure they're going to be able to reach an agreement with the Pacers," a source said. "It's clear they want him back and he wanted to go back, but they may not be able to come to terms."
Several clubs have reached out to Stephenson's agent, Alberto Ebanks, to register their interest, most notably the Los Angeles Lakers and Chicago Bulls, according to sources.
Michael Jordan and the Charlotte Hornets also have interest in Stephenson.
While money is a factor, Stephenson will not simply go to the highest bidder, sources said. He wants to go to a team that is either a contender or a competitive up-and-coming club.
The Pacers pulled out all the stops Tuesday by hosting Stephenson and his family at a local theater and surprising him with a movie about his life.
With lucrative contracts already committed to Paul George ($15.8 million), Roy Hibbert ($14.9) and David West ($12), the Pacers feel they are offering Stephenson as much as they can while remaining financially prudent.
