    Sounds Good. Add two more PF's to battle with Patterson, Scola and Donuts. You should be our GM.:rolleyes:

    Who says we dont trade those two to get Gasol, or do you think LA would give us Gasol for a pack of Cuban cigars?

    id be down to draft this guy. the knock on him is that he is undersized and unathletic. well so was kevin love. im not saying the guy is gonna be a star though or a rebounding monster that can hit the three for that matter.

    This probably happened because the Blazers gave him a promise.

    This just screams Dejuan Blair 2.0.

    Chances are he falls to a celtics, spurs type team and plays tremendously for them.

    How about we leave Gasol alone and rebuild? Gasol will not lead us to a championship.

    How soon people forget that this guy just dominated college basketball a few months ago. I think he's worth taking a shot at the 16th pick if he falls that far. Hell, id be happy if they got him at 14. What do the Rockets need more than anything? Points in the paint.

    Pau Gasol PER last

    22.2
    22.9
    23.3
    20.5

    Yeah, I mean where the league average is 15, why would we want this guy? I mean hes 31 years old so, if we can get him for cheap (minus the cap hit) then he's only got like, what 3 or 4 above average years left? Hell, he only had 8.3 offensive WIN shares last year, and a measly 3.1 in defensive win shares (do the math) so yeah, lets just leave him alone.

    Look, Im saying that if we can get him for Scola and Patterson...

    You dont want that trade?

    No doubt. I would even say we should trade up for him.

    Look at Shaq, how athletic was he? Sully had 10.7% body fat, at 268 lbs. Give him a proper training regimen, and he can easily hit a VERY athletic 285 of 8% muscle.

    He'll be a solid pick in teen's, good in 20's, and a steal in second round.

    No doubt Houston can snag him at #14.

    If this happened, I would be the first one to buy his jersey.
