What are some teams that could use a player like Bass? He's definitely productive, but only on a contenders bench. He deserves a chance to contend and plays incredible defense on stretch 4's (Carmelo, Lebron)

Some of these teams only make sense if they end up having a shot at the playoffs, in which case they could use a veteran big off the bench who will try hard on defense and can hit a jumper

Cleveland
Denver, once they become the next team to give up on JJ Hickson for his (lack of) defense
Houston (so long as you can come with a deal where they don't give up Asik)
Phoenix (if they weren't tanking)
Utah
Washington

This list will grow once he regular season starts with teams fighting for playoff position, and injuries mount.

Meh, he's a $6.6 million expiring next year. The only real problem is that we will have a hard time getting him playing time to showcase him

Bass may be easier to move than Humphries, but he is also more versatile. If Sullinger and Olynyk can replace his Shooting and Humphires can replace his defense we should be fine without him.
