Pau Gasol turned down a two-year, $10M-plus per deal with the Lakers, league sources tell Yahoo Sports. Likely moving on.

Regarding Pau: top two now Chi/Spurs..if Bulls can't do sign and trade with Lakers, likely he goes to Spurs

Wow, him and Duncan would be pretty fun to watch.

Another easy decision. I could tell you were he is going but you guys would miss the suspense.

Just like Bosh going to Houston was an easy decision?

I would absolutely love him on the Spurs!  He would be perfect.  Another super smart player and great passer.  Pop would keep him rested and healthy and extend his career.  I really hope he chooses San Antonio.

I was hoping he would go to OKC. They could really use a player like him.

Pau has become pretty underrated.

So he could run up and down the floor and watch Westbrook and Durant jack up shots?

If I were a player, the team I would enjoy the most to play on is the Spurs, by far.

It'd give him a longer window to compete - Duncan likely retires after this upcoming season. Because I think him and Ibaka would complement each other beautifully. And just maybe, with a low post scoring threat, Durant and Westbrook (well at least Durant) wouldn't be forced to jack up shots.

For sure.  It would be a great fit.

I think another team will get desperate and pay him a huge salary, though.

The Spurs would make for a great fit. But the Spurs are running out of cash. If Pau wants to be paid he will go elsewhere.

I hope he picks the Spurs for entertainment sake.

Pau Gasol could find his way to Chicago, but it's unlikely to be in a sign-and-trade for Carlos Boozer, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.
