Seems like Donnie should have been able to persuede Bass and his agent to wait until our window to sign Gortat ended.
If Orlando matched and resigned Gortat (which was thought to be less unlikely), then Bass could resign at market value for us (a team he admittedly had a soft spot for) or one of his other reported suitors. If we ultimately sign Gortat (which was thought to be more likely), then Orlando has an even greater need for Bass, can spend more freely and has more playing time for him.
