Look Lakers cant make the deal without us. Its proven our assets get Chris Paul and not the lakers in this deal. So walk away and let them get nothing. We have the players to do this on our own deal for something better obviously. Without the Lakers.
As long as it is players like that I am fine. Lee and Patterson should be non-starters in the discussion.
Love you to. Love how people call others with different opinions than their own ignorant or idiots. And you guys give me **** for being condescending in tone.....lol.....fighting fire with fire....I guess. DD
That was almost exactly what uninformed fans of other teams said about Yao. Almost exactly. Learn from it.
If we get Nene, it's pretty obvious that he'd play C. That's where >90% of his minutes have come the last two years.
What's the saying: Go big or go home. Having said that Lowry, Lee & Morris should be untouchable. Budinger or Patterson (but not both) would be a tough pill to swallow. T-Will, Flynn, Dragic or Jordan I'm fine with.
If that's so the case, then they shouldn't be getting CP3 at all... It should be US!! We have the assets to get CP3 AND D-12!! NOT LA!!!
Your statement that he is just a skinny dude in the paint with no ability to impose his will or alter shots is simply ignorance. He is no softie in the paint.
I know you were talking about having problems splitting PT to everyone. We lose ourselves in piling up draft picks and young players, stashing them overseas but no results in those years. Year of mediocrity after year of mediocrity. It's too much agreed but it's also better for everyone because you know the exact direction they are heading. Having Gasol would attract wing players I would bet in the near future.
Agreed. It depends on the players. The people jumping off the deep end without seeing the details are being ridiculous.
No stern vetoed the trade bcuz he believed, acting in the best interest of the hornets, that they could get a better deal with younger talent.
Lol, Tebow. Melo was "hyped" because several teams wanted to build there franchise around him, including Houston. Don't forget Denver was competing for the best record in the west a few years back. I don't think it was because of KMart and Birdman. Melo has more upside in his game than Gasol could dream about, if he wasn't such an ass he might have won a ring. Didn't want Melo in Houston, but really don't want Gasol. We are giving up way too much. And Tebow will exposed this week if all is right with the world.
Amen. For the same reasons as well. They watched him once or twice before he had put on muscle and been "toughened" up and let that be their opinion. Gasol has put on muscle and is a good player in the post.
Seriously - with what we have to give up, just take Chris Paul. Bet on him, that you can make him sign an extension. Because if you can`t, you need to build through the draft. Trade Lowry, Scola, Martin for Paul, then Sign Nene and try to get a 2 or 3 guard. Make this team with Paul as competitive as possible - so that he can`t leave at the end. I´d much rather have the disappointment of Paul leaving after one year, than overpaying Gasol by giving up too much pieces and than having to overpay Nene or another big men and still don`t be a contender...
