Possible suitors for Gasol?

If Pau Gasol has played his last game with the Los Angeles Lakers, 4 teams could be possible destinations for him as reported by Chris Mannix of SI.com.
Chicago: The Bulls would have to amnesty Carlos Boozer. Would losing Boozer at $16 million and then adding Gasol at $10 million be an upgrade? It's debatable, and Boozer has fewer injury issues. Could Gasol and Joakim Noah play together? That seems like some funky spacing.
Cleveland: Sure, why not? They've made enough desperate attempts to make it into the playoffs by adding a veteran and failed, what's one more?
Charlotte: The answer to the "Can they stop anybody?" questions is "No. No they couldn't." But the Bobcats had a good interior defense with Jefferson and Josh McRoberts this year. You have to think Gasol would help to some degree.
Memphis: This makes a lot of sense on a lot of levels... and the fanbase would hate it. Gasol has spoken negatively of the city on repeat occasions since leaving and he symbolizes the powerless, rudderless Grizzlies that never won a playoff game when Gasol was there. It's not a great fit.
