Pau Gasol: He probably has the best chance of being traded among the current and former All-Star players. The Lakers are woefully short in the backcourt and with depth and athleticism. He was in that aborted preseason deal to the Rockets, and their interest is said to remain the most significant. The deal that’s been most speculated is Gasol for Luis Scola and Kyle Lowry. The Rockets are said to be high on Goran Dragic and Jonny Flynn to replace Lowry, and the Lakers desperately need a point guard under Mike Brown’s system. This is a deal, denied for now, that benefits both teams and seems likely to be made. Chances of Gasol being dealt: 75 percent. http://hoopshype.com/rumors/tag/houston_rockets Personally I would do Luis Scola + Flynn + Martin for Gasol What is your opnion?
Lowry and Scola for Gasol is way too much in my opinion. Then again, it would be a big steal for us if we got Gasol for just Scola, Dragic and Flynn.
Lowry better not be dealt. I'll have to put up with a bullsh^t wave of pro-Morey fans telling people to calm down and wait and an equally large bullsh^t wave of anti-Morey fans telling people to start rioting.
This is from the Sam Smith article. Sam Smith just makes up random trades. Not really new info here. Certainly not worthy of being called a "potential" trade, as if there are real rumors circulating.
I thought I'd heard something about Gasol in some other thread or 10? Maybe not? Thanks for the scoop.
I'd do Luis plus Lowry for Gasol and first round pick next year. I think Dragic is a solid starter now. I'm not sure about the backup point guard though. Llull is a posibility?
You lose one of the most potent backcourts in the league for a second tier big guy? If we can keep Lowry and Martin, me gusta.
Pull the trigger, im sick of being average, build a team around kyle or build one around gasol? Give me the spaniard and bring over sergio until then goran, flyn, and even courtney can run the ship. Im telling you if we can hold on to martin as well that is a great inside outside combination.
morey knows that hes gonna trade dragic and scola for gasol. morey knows hes not gonna trade lowry unless its for D-williams
In other news the New Jersey Nets really wants Dwight Howard but Orlando doesn't yet want to trade him unless they know the can't resign him. A deal may include Humpries, multiple draft picks, and another 2 players of the Magic's choosing not named Deron Williams. Chances of the Magic dealing Dwight Howard: 60%. Can I get paid for writing that kind of speculation (+ random mathematical number at the end to give legitimacy) as well?
this can't be true... lowry and scola for gasol is a complete rip-off. i wouldn't even trade lowry for gasol straight up
