    NBA trade deadline buzz: Bulls shopping Pau Gasol
    Adrian Wojnarowski of The Vertical By Adrian Wojnarowski of The Vertical
    1 hour ago
    Yahoo Sports
    
    The Chicago Bulls are aggressively shopping All-Star forward Pau Gasol, league sources told The Vertical.

    Gasol, 35, can opt out of his contract this summer and become an unrestricted free agent, and Bulls general manager Gar Forman seems determined to move him before Thursday's trade deadline with the hope of bringing back value.

    Gasol is expected to decline the player option on the $7.4 million owed him in 2016-17.

    Gasol is averaging 17 points and 10.9 rebounds for the struggling Bulls.

    1 hour ago. Probably have a 10 minute grace period in this thread as we approach the trade deadline.

    I'd trade Howard for Pau so fast. Pau is a real leader and real hard worker. He can actually score off PNRs with Harden easy.

    one first rounder?

    Hmm..who would you choose if you were Toronto to try to beat the Cavs?

    Rhyan Anderson, Taj Gibson, Thad Young, or M.Morris?
    You want one who can shoot but is not completely horrible in defence, because Valanciunas can't cover well for the two of them.

    Raptors have 4 first in 2 years.

    Taj would probably be your best/cheapest option if it were down to those four.

    The 2016 Houston Rockets are a terrible defensive team. Your solution is to trade its best defender for a mediocre, slow defender?
