    I wonder if that's the reason LMA is hesitating about signing with the Spurs, dragging this out a bit. Maybe San Antonio is asking him to take a small pay cut, saying that Duncan is taking a huge pay cut for the good of the team and so should he. LMA knows he's already taking a pay cut to not re-sign with us, so that's like a double discount.

    Bahhh! Who knows.

    Or Gasol goes to Portland and LMA goes to Spurs? Maybe this is the last "solid" Aldridge gives us? Lol I know what a reach

    Lol if Gasol was truly available he should've been everyone's main target, not LA. Especially San Antonio's.

    It shows the cap side of it all. Portland is in pretty good shape if they sign him. Just showing you that it's more practical that he signs with Portland looking at it from this angle.

    Unless the plan wasn't to make Gasol available, then use Aldridge as the decoy while working shit out

    "I'm happy to stay, happy to be here, happy with the direction the team has gone the last year or two,"

    Are you happy with the direction the team is going in? Do you think the team is closer to a title? Even if LMA stays?

    LMA has been pretty clear, he doesn't want to go thru another rebuild. Seems like we're rebuilding to me.

    Maybe you're right? I don't know, I keep thinking his intention was to resign right up until the wheels fell off after Wesley's injury.
