then maybe do you think the lakers would take harris scola and parson? lowry lee morris gasol jefferson
Here is a 3 team trade that can really improve all 3 teams involved. Do y'all think Phoenix is getting too much for Nash in this trade? I did another one that looks the same, except Phoenix gets Dally too and we get Marcin Gortat along with Gasol from LA. Don't know if that would be enough for them, but it's like they're getting 3 starters (Dragic, Martin, and Dalembert) in return for Gortat since Nash is as good as gone once the season ends, so might as well get what you can.
Interesting move, but the Lakers would need to give up picks for Nash as well (he would also clear cap space). And I'd trade Bud or Parsons, Dalembert, NY pick, and an expiring for Gortat and Dudley. That dude is good!
I also had another idea. The only way I trade Lowry to the Lakers for Pau, is if we are guaranteed to get Derron Williams in the offseason. Other than that, Dragic would be a definite upgrade for the lakers at the PG position. The Pacers also get a SG they need. The Rockets could then sign a guy like Eric Gordon in the offseason. Starting 5 Lowry Gordon Granger Gasol Dalembert OR Lowry Gordon Granger Patterson Gasol
For some reason the picture of the trade did post LAL - Scola, Dragic, Hill IND - Martin and Parsons HOU - Granger and Gasol
Larry Bird has repeatedly said he's not trading Granger unless the Pacers get a superstar back in return.
Martin/Thabeet/Dragic/NY pick returned for Carmelo Anthony Lowry / Flynn Lee / Budinger Melo / Parsons Scola / Patterson Dalembert / Hill
i dont get all these suggestions (from both here and sports sites like ESPN) that have us sending out martin, scola, and dragic for gasol. we wouldn't do that same trade anymore! the plan was to bring in nene and chuck back to go along with pau but since nene and chuck wouldnt be part of the equation anymore, it just doesnt make sense. i'm not saying we aren't trying to trade for gasol still but i think that the structure is going to have to be different with different pieces going out and more than just gasol coming in
Am I over-valuing KMart, Scola, and Gragic or under-valuing Pau Gasol? I just don't like the idea of shipping out those three guys and only getting Gasol in return. I know Gasol is an all-star that can take this team to new heights, but isn't giving up 2 starters AND our backup pg too much? (Flynn isn't a capable back-up in my opinion)
Rockets Send - Martin, Dragic and Hill Utah Sends - Jefferson and Waston Then trade scola for a solid C and SG like maybe to the thunder for sefolosha, mohammed and a first round pick Lowry/Waston Lee/Sefolosha Parsons/Budinger/ Jefferson/Patterson/ Dalembert/Jefferson/Mohammed
