Pau Gasol ?@paugasolIt hasn't been easy. After meditating it a lot I've chosen to play with the Chicago Bulls. Looking forward to this new chapter of my career
Bulls can't aggregate Randolph's salary, and they'd be foolish to include Butler in a deal. Can't they just sign Gasol to the MLE?

Beyond that, after being horribly misused and mistreated in his last few years in LA, he made it clear that interest and fit were his main priorities. Chicago showed more interest, and would also be able to play him more minutes than San Antonio likely would have.
