They didn't receive a star in return and as a result, given some time I think we'll see that this trade will be a flop for Utah. Still early...
And yet what's reported is that it's the Rox in constant pursuit of Gasol and the Lakers telling them, if you want Pau, here's what it will take...
Yeah that makes a ton of sense for the Lakers. Take back two expiring contracts and a lame one with three years remaining in exchange for Gasol....
Don't understand where you're going with this? The Lakers won't part with Gasol and Bynum for the privilege of renting Howard. Neither would you.
How do figure that if we're talking about the list of intangibles you just rattled off, the most problematic of which is the discrepancy between...
I don't see the Lakers trading Bynum and Gasol in any scenario that only net's them Dwight Howard (no offense to "He-Don't Turkoglu)....
Don't know why this concept doesn't resonate with Rocket fans since it's fairly straight forward, but generally in this league you cannot trade a...
I do agree with Rowdy though to the extent that Morey is in a tough spot. it's a place he can't survive in. His honeymoon has long since over...
Just talking about Rocket fans in general not necessarily calling you out. I think it's fine you don't want to see a deal involving those two...
Why do you have to badmouth Gasol before you're satisfied that trading Lowry for him is the wrong thing to do. Don't you realize that it's...

Some truth in that I suppose, although the talent level once you got past Odom has been suspect since before the team started reaching finals and...
No two circumstances are ever identical. The debate at hand is whether or not an NBA player's career is abbreviated and moves towards rapid...
Certainly could be argued that way, particularly by the people most interested in acquiring his services but don't want to pay too high a price....
I think part of the problem has been that the Rocket fan base was operating under the misconception that somehow the Lakers were eager and...
Not immune to it. But this age thing is just not necessarily the big deal you're making it out to be when it comes to assessing trade value....
Oh for god sakes people, get off the Gasol train. I promise you the Lakers have moved on from this. This guy is delusional if he thinks...
"Drastically boost???" That's far from the case. Gasol is the starting Power Forward on the front line of the Lakers who arguably have to two...
But apparently that's the problem. The original deal for those three players was something that New Orleans signed off on. Not the Lakers. The...
I think the Rockets can bring in a player with "star power" value. Super star is another story and for that you have to be a little bit lucky as...
