    No way we're that stupid. None. I think Alexander and Morey are on the same page now. Go big or roll young.

    Morey's going to give up 75% of the assets for Pau that he'd give up for Dwight? Yeah right. Probably not even half. Maybe something like Martin + TOR pick (and no rookies or any other assets).

    And honestly I don't think Pau fits with this team in any case. Morey doesn't want more veterans unless they can carry a team. He likes Pau but after amnestying Scola, shedding Kyle and Budinger for draft picks, it's clear he's chosen a direction: Superstar or rebuild. Maximize chances of championship now, or maximize playing time for young guys.

    I wouldn't even give up the raptor pick for Pau. Martin, Morris, Ppat, and filler contracts and 2nd rders is the most id give up.

    Don't get to confident yet. It hasn't been finalized at all. Could just be all a ruse to get the Rockets to up their offer.

    I wouldn't give up anything for Pau unless we had a deal to flip him immediately after.

    But I'm not Morey and he is in love with Gasol.

    Seems funny to me that this rumor comes out a few days after Donatas Motiejunas became eligible to be traded. That Summer League play in Vegas must have been hell for Hennigan and the Magic to watch.

    clearly a fake rumor to try and get morey to blink.
