One of the most interesting players to follow in the free agency market is Los Angeles Lakers big man and power forward Pau Gasol. There are no shortage of suitors for Gasol and he certainly has some interesting opportunities ahead of him.

Gasol is going to wait though, and see what Anthony does.

If Knicks retain Melo, as so many expect, they've actually got two very peruasive Pau Gasol recruiters: @PhilJackson11 and @josemcalderon8

Gonna be fascinating to see if one of the teams with limited funds -- OKC, San Antonio, New York and Miami -- can talk Pau into bargain deal

There is a school of thought in circulation that Pau Gasol is going to choose his next destination after he sees what Carmelo Anthony does

The New York Knicks and the Oklahoma City Thunder are among the most recent, and while there are plenty of options Anthony’s decision could very well impact his. Perhaps there is an opportunity to team up with Anthony that Gasol would like to take? How would he know if he signs before Anthony. Makes perfect sense to.
