    He was on their roster for about 2 weeks before the start of last season.

    At which point they could have signed him for peanuts - and now they'll pay him $25 million instead. Well done!

    Did anyone else watch the 'friendly' between France and Spain?

    Gasol got his points but he has lost ALL his lift.

    Batum handled the ball a bit and played well in that role.

    Well with all of the money he's about to make, he's got every excuse to start handling the ball in the NBA.

    In hindsight, who got the better deal in the Kwahi Leonard/George Hill trade?

    Look on the bright side folks. Nic might be slightly overpaid, but he's still not making more than Javale McGee

    David Aldridge @daldridgetnt

    Source confirms 4/$44M report from @SpearsNBAYahoo for JaVale McGee. Full guarantee, per source.

    Can you imagine what those fans would say if Lin said "It's my dream to play in Minnesota. I was stuck in a corner by the Knicks. My friends are on Minnesota and I like their coach." and was then re-signed by the Knicks? Ouch. I think Batum is lucky Portland fans are more forgiving.

    I wonder if the Knicks fans realize it was their own team that didn't match
