Marc Gasol will be a restricted free agent this offseason, but didn't sound like he was prepared to use the Knicks' interest as leverage against the Grizzlies the way his teammate Rudy Gay did a year ago.

"I'm not worried about it," Gasol said of his free agent status. "I'm just trying to enjoy my situation right now and make the playoffs. That's the only thing that I really care about right now.

"When the time comes, we'll see what happens and we're going to study every situation by itself," he added. "But right now, we've got too nice of a present to worry about the future."

The Knicks are expected to show interest in Gasol. Though Gasol expressed concern about how he would fit in Mike D'Antoni's system, he did compare New York to Barcelona.

"It's a great city, beautiful city, similar to Barcelona," said Gasol.
