Re: RUMOR: Lakers Shopping Gasol For Eastern Conf.Star PG?
[QUOTE=KG215]:oldlol:
Makes sense for both teams if it's the goal of Chicago's GM to get fired.[/QUOTE]
If you're talking about ISH GM
you can easily trade gasol (real FMVP 2010) for rose (amnesia) or melo (fat chucker) and would still get some pick in return :lol

[QUOTE=TheMarkMadsen]D Rose welcome to Los Angleles
Gasol, Steve Blake & cash considerations for Rose, Bulter & a 1st.
Makes sense for both teams, get it done mitch![/QUOTE]
:oldlol:
Re: RUMOR: Lakers Shopping Gasol For Eastern Conf.Star PG?
[QUOTE=Real Men Wear Green]That isn't realistic. If the Cs deal Rondo they'll want more than just cap space.[/QUOTE]
None of us thought the Lakers could land Chris Paul but they somehow pulled it off. I'm not saying a trade for Rondo has any legs, but based on where the Celtics are right now it could be a possibility. It's more grounded in reality than pipe dreams like Kyrie Irving or Derek Rose.
Re: RUMOR: Lakers Shopping Gasol For Eastern Conf.Star PG?
Is this the thread where everybody who likes to prop up Pau Gasol gets nervous about their team actually trading anybody worthwhile for him?
:oldlol:
Re: RUMOR: Lakers Shopping Gasol For Eastern Conf.Star PG?
Lakers aren't getting any young, legit talent for Gasol. They will end up letting him expire and walk for the cap space.
Re: RUMOR: Lakers Shopping Gasol For Eastern Conf.Star PG?
Has anyone considered perhaps MCW? Brett Brown is high on Tony Wroten because MCW is still developing his shot.
Re: RUMOR: Lakers Shopping Gasol For Eastern Conf.Star PG?
Nobody wants that contract
Re: RUMOR: Lakers Shopping Gasol For Eastern Conf.Star PG?
Gilbert Arenas is still a free agent.
Re: RUMOR: Lakers Shopping Gasol For Eastern Conf.Star PG?
lol @ people actually thinking TheMarkMadsen is being serious.
Re: RUMOR: Lakers Shopping Gasol For Eastern Conf.Star PG?

Done
Re: RUMOR: Lakers Shopping Gasol For Eastern Conf.Star PG?
would love to see the lakers tanking without pau
Re: RUMOR: Lakers Shopping Gasol For Eastern Conf.Star PG?
Pau for Boozer, Teague and Charlotte's pick?
Pau is significantly better than Boozer, so this trade completes two things...
1) Chicago improves a lot this year, giving them an even better shot at toppling Miami.
2) Lakers get worse, with a legit trade (instead of obvious tanking), thus giving them a higher pick this year and they get Charlotte's pick sometime in the next 3 years.

There's nothing realistic about it. There's no benefit to it for the Celtics, you just think it could happen because it benefits the Lakers. The CP3 deal that didn't happen has no relevance to this, that deal wasn't made with Ainge and the Celtics. While it's true that Gasol won't get them Rose or Irving there is no reason why it gets the Lakers Rondo either.

Gasol would help the Bulls alot.
I'm happy with what we've got though
