    Gasol is about on his way out of Memphis. You know it would take a package of at least Capela + 1st, to land him. Gasol name speaks for itself, Marc is a premier All-star but aging like cp3. I think if they give us a young player back say Kyle Anderson = A player rockets could use at small forward i think this trade would be good for both sides.

    They give us something as well that we need say young small forward, and hell maybe even there first rounder.

    Persoanlly i would not trade Capela, but you know they will want him all i said hehe.

    If Capela is required, then no. If we are not giving up crucial players, then yes.

    Can other teams do better ,sure. But an aging center is only needed for a playoff team and most of them are set at center. Maybe the Lakers for a season but I think Gasol can opt in

    When I start to see a bunch of "Hey, maybe we can get this recent All-Star and DPOY without giving up much!" comments, I know we're only a few weeks shy of the trade deadline.

    Capela is already better than Gasol is nowadays. Why would you trade a player who is younger and better with additions like a 1st round pick for a lesser and aging player like Gasol?

    In no world we would or should give up Capela for him let alone a first round pick on top. And it wouldn’t work with other players we have. And if it did what do u do have gasol play 15 minutes a game as back up center? And Kyle Anderson cannot shoot..

    Not to mention Capela already averaging more than him in points and Rebounds, oh and Capela is a better defender. Oh Capela is 24 gasol is 34. Oh gasol just scored 5 points and 7 rebounds against a team last night with no center. He couldn’t even score in post on Gary Clark

    A

    Are you really advocating to trade Capela and a 1st for Gasol?

    Really?
