    Simmons and Bucher talk about the potential Lowry Gasol trade at around 38 min mark.

    Bucher suggests Lowry/Scola for Gasol. Simmons says Lowry is never on the table. Bucher says "You are wrong my man."

    Hmmm...

    Pretty sure Lowry was never available.

    Who knows? Bucher seems pretty confident about his opinion.

    On paper Lowry for Gasol seems like a dumb move, but we would have to consider what the move after that is and where it puts our team.

    I don't see Morey trading Kyle for Pau. It would be more a lateral move than a true upgrade; you finally get your allstar big man but now you gotta look for a legit championship PG. Nope. Kyle only on the market for Deron (or Dwight).

    lol no. I'd rather invest in donuts's or Patterson's growth than trade Kyle for Gasol. No knock on Gasol.

    I can only see Lowry being traded for Gasol if Morey is also somehow picking up an elite PG to replace Lowry, like D-Will or Rondo. As a straight-up, singular move, there is no way Morey gives up Lowry + Scola for Gasol.

    Okay. IF Lowry went in a deal to LA, and Gasol was our target, what could we get ? Gasol + 2 #1's? ...have to perhaps have another team involved. At first glance, I don't like it.

    I would love to see Pau Gasol in a Rockets uniform as much as anybody, but there's no chance in hell I would give Lowry up for him.

    Morey knows he wouldn't do lowry + scola for gasol. If it was dragic + scola I'm cool with that but I'll only trade Lowry if we get d-will

    Would hate that trade and would be a dark time for the Houston Rockets.

    If Lowry is involved, no trade.

    If Morey was willing to give up Lowry for Gasol, the deal would be done already.

    I don't get it. I thought the point was to pair Gasol with Nene and Lowry.

    Lowry needs to keep beasting so Dwight comes over.

    Maybe we should give Hakeem a post on the coaching staff too.

    I feel the same way as most do. No Lowry for a whining Pau.
    Lowry puts his heart and soul for us ala Chuck.

    Sounds more like wishful thinking on Bucher's part. Lowry is worth more than an aging PF. Give me a break.
